Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation	9 Months Ended
Principles of Consolidation	Jul. 02, 2022
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. We believe that we have included all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period. Operating results for the nine months ended July 2, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending October 1, 2022. The terms “Company,” “Disney,” “we,” “us,” and “our” are used in this report to refer collectively to the parent company, The Walt Disney Company, as well as the subsidiaries through which its various businesses are actually conducted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Fox sports media business in Mexico was sold in November 2021. The Company recognized a $58 million loss on the sale, which is presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the nine months ended July 2, 2022. At October 2, 2021, the assets and liabilities of the Fox sports media business in Mexico were not material and were included in other assets and other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Variable Interest Entities The Company enters into relationships with or makes investments in other entities that may be variable interest entities (VIE). A VIE is consolidated in the financial statements if the Company has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant (as defined by ASC 810-10-25-38) to the VIE. Hong Kong Disneyland Resort and Shanghai Disney Resort (together the Asia Theme Parks) are VIEs in which the Company has less than 50% equity ownership. Company subsidiaries (the Management Companies) have management agreements with the Asia Theme Parks, which provide the Management Companies, subject to certain protective rights of joint venture partners, with the ability to direct the day-to-day operating activities and the development of business strategies that we believe most significantly impact the economic performance of the Asia Theme Parks. In addition, the Management Companies receive management fees under these arrangements that we believe could be significant to the Asia Theme Parks. Therefore, the Company has consolidated the Asia Theme Parks in its financial statements. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests The Company consolidates the results of certain subsidiaries that are less than 100% owned and for which the noncontrolling interest shareholders have the rights to require the Company to purchase their interests in these subsidiaries. The most significant of these are Hulu LLC (Hulu) and BAMTech LLC (BAMTech). Hulu provides direct-to-consumer (DTC) streaming services and is owned 67% by the Company and 33% by NBC Universal (NBCU). In May 2019, the Company entered into a put/call agreement with NBCU that provided the Company with full operational control of Hulu. Under the agreement, beginning in January 2024, NBCU has the option to require the Company to purchase NBCU’s interest in Hulu and the Company has the option to require NBCU to sell its interest in Hulu to the Company, in either case at a redemption value based on NBCU’s equity ownership percentage of the greater of Hulu’s then equity fair value or a guaranteed floor value of $27.5 billion. NBCU’s interest will generally not be allocated its portion of Hulu’s losses, if any, as the redeemable noncontrolling interest is required to be carried at a minimum value. The minimum value is equal to the fair value as of the May 2019 agreement date accreted to the January 2024 estimated redemption value. At July 2, 2022, NBCU’s interest in Hulu is recorded in the Company’s financial statements at $8.6 billion. BAMTech provides streaming technology services to third parties and is owned 85% by the Company and 15% by Major League Baseball (MLB). MLB has the right to sell its interest to the Company and the Company has the right to buy MLB’s interest starting five years from and ending ten years after the Company’s September 25, 2017 acquisition date of BAMTech, in either case at a redemption value based on MLB’s equity ownership percentage of the greater of MLB’s then equity fair value or a guaranteed floor value ($563 million accreting at 8% annually for eight years from the date of acquisition). The MLB interest is required to be carried at a minimum value equal to its acquisition date fair value accreted to its estimated redemption value through the applicable redemption date. Therefore, the MLB interest is generally not allocated its portion of BAMTech losses, if any. As of July 2, 2022, the MLB interest was recorded in the Company’s financial statements at $825 million. Our estimate of the redemption value of noncontrolling interests requires management to make significant judgments with respect to the future value of the noncontrolling interests. We are accreting the noncontrolling interests of both BAMTech and Hulu to their guaranteed floor values. If our estimate of the future redemption value increased above either of the guaranteed floor values, we would change our rate of accretion, which would generally increase the amount recorded in “Net income from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests” and thus reduce “Net income attributable to Disney” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in the fiscal 2021 financial statements and notes to conform to the fiscal 2022 presentation.

Segment Information

Segment Information	9 Months Ended
Segment Information	Jul. 02, 2022
Segment Information	Segment Information The Company’s operations are conducted in the Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution (DMED) and Disney Parks, Experiences and Products (DPEP) segments. Our operating segments report separate financial information, which is evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer in order to decide how to allocate resources and assess performance. Segment operating results reflect earnings before corporate and unallocated shared expenses, restructuring and impairment charges, net other income, net interest expense, income taxes and noncontrolling interests. Segment operating income includes equity in the income of investees and excludes impairments of certain equity investments and acquisition accounting amortization of TFCF Corporation (TFCF) and Hulu assets (i.e. intangible assets and the fair value step-up for film and television costs) recognized in connection with the TFCF acquisition in fiscal 2019 (TFCF and Hulu acquisition amortization). Corporate and unallocated shared expenses principally consist of corporate functions, executive management and certain unallocated administrative support functions. Segment operating results include allocations of certain costs, including information technology, pension, legal and other shared services costs, which are allocated based on metrics designed to correlate with consumption. Impact of COVID-19 Since early 2020, the world has been, and continues to be, impacted by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and its variants. COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread have impacted our segments in a number of ways, most significantly at the DPEP segment where our theme parks and resorts were closed and cruise ship sailings and guided tours were suspended. These operations resumed at various points since May 2020, initially at reduced operating capacities as a result of COVID-19 restrictions. In fiscal 2020 and 2021, we delayed, or in some cases, shortened or canceled, theatrical releases. In addition, we experienced significant disruptions in the production and availability of content, including the delay of key live sports programming during fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2022, our domestic parks and resorts are generally operating without significant COVID-19-related capacity restrictions, such as those that were generally in place during the prior year. In addition, our cruise ships have generally been operating without COVID-19-related capacity restrictions since April 2022. Certain of our international parks and resorts continue to be impacted by COVID-19-related closures and capacity and travel restrictions. At the DMED segment, our film and television productions have generally resumed, although we have seen disruptions of production activities depending on local circumstances. Thus far, we have generally been able to release our films theatrically in fiscal 2022, although certain markets continue to impose restrictions on theater openings and capacity. The impact of these disruptions and the extent of their adverse impact on our financial and operating results will depend on the length of time that such disruptions continue. This will, in turn, depend on the duration and severity of the impacts of COVID-19 and its variants, and among other things, the impact of governmental actions imposed in response to COVID-19 and individuals’ and companies’ risk tolerance regarding health matters going forward. We have incurred and will continue to incur additional costs to address government regulations and the safety of our employees, guests and talent. Segment revenues and segment operating income (loss) are as follows: Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Revenues: Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution $ 14,110 $ 12,681 $ 42,315 $ 37,782 Disney Parks, Experiences and Products 7,394 4,341 21,280 11,102 Total segment revenues $ 21,504 $ 17,022 $ 63,595 $ 48,884 Segment operating income (loss): Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution $ 1,381 $ 2,026 $ 4,133 $ 6,348 Disney Parks, Experiences and Products 2,186 356 6,391 (169) Total segment operating income (1) $ 3,567 $ 2,382 $ 10,524 $ 6,179 (1) Equity in the income of investees is included in segment operating income as follows: Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution $ 230 $ 220 $ 693 $ 681 Disney Parks, Experiences and Products (2) (5) (10) (22) Equity in the income of investees included in segment operating income 228 215 683 659 Amortization of TFCF intangible assets related to equity investees (3) (4) (9) (11) Equity in the income of investees, net $ 225 $ 211 $ 674 $ 648 A reconciliation of segment revenues to total revenues is as follows: Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Segment revenues $ 21,504 $ 17,022 $ 63,595 $ 48,884 Content License Early Termination (1) — — (1,023) — Total revenues $ 21,504 $ 17,022 $ 62,572 $ 48,884 (1) During the nine months ended July 2, 2022, the Company recognized a reduction in revenue for amounts to early terminate certain license agreements with a customer for film and television content, which was delivered in previous years, in order for the Company to use the content primarily on our direct-to-consumer services (Content License Early Termination). Because the content is functional intellectual property (IP), we recognized substantially all of the consideration to be paid by the customer under the licenses as revenue in prior years when the content was made available under the agreements. Consequently, we have recorded the amounts to terminate the license agreements, net of remaining amounts of deferred revenue, as a reduction of revenue in the current nine-month period.

For the quarter ended July 2, 2022, $0.3 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of April 2, 2022. For the nine months ended July 2, 2022, $0.9 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of October 2, 2021. For the quarter ended July 3, 2021, $0.3 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of April 3, 2021. For the nine months ended July 3, 2021, $1.0 billion was related to performance obligations satisfied as of October 3, 2020. As of July 2, 2022, revenue for unsatisfied performance obligations expected to be recognized in the future is $12 billion, primarily for content and other IP to be made available in the future under existing agreements with television station affiliates, merchandise licensees and DTC subscribers. Of this amount, we expect to recognize approximately $2 billion in the remainder of fiscal 2022, $5 billion in fiscal 2023, $3 billion in fiscal 2024 and $2 billion thereafter. These amounts include only fixed consideration or minimum guarantees and do not include amounts related to (i) contracts with an original expected term of one year or less (such as most advertising contracts) or (ii) licenses of IP that are solely based on the sales of the licensee. When the timing of the Company’s revenue recognition is different from the timing of customer payments, the Company recognizes either a contract asset (customer payment is subsequent to revenue recognition and subject to the Company satisfying additional performance obligations) or deferred revenue (customer payment precedes the Company satisfying the performance obligations). Consideration due under contracts with payment in arrears is recognized as accounts receivable. Deferred revenues are recognized as (or when) the Company performs under the contract. Contract assets, accounts receivable and deferred revenues from contracts with customers are as follows: July 2, October 2, Contract assets $ 74 $ 155 Accounts receivable Current 11,891 11,190 Non-current 1,284 1,359 Allowance for credit losses (198) (194) Deferred revenues Current 4,060 4,067 Non-current 448 581 Contract assets primarily relate to certain multi-season TV/SVOD licensing contracts. Activity for the current and prior-year periods related to contract assets was not material. For the quarter and nine months ended July 2, 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $0.4 billion and $3.2 billion, respectively, that was included in the October 2, 2021 deferred revenue balance. For the quarter and nine months ended July 3, 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $0.4 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively, that was included in the October 3, 2020 deferred revenue balance. Amounts deferred generally relate to DTC subscriptions, TV/SVOD licenses and advances from merchandise licensees. We evaluate our allowance for credit losses and estimate collectability of current and non-current accounts receivable based on historical bad debt experience, our assessment of the financial condition of individual companies with which we do business, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. In times of economic turmoil, our estimates and judgments with respect to the collectability of our receivables are subject to greater uncertainty than in more stable periods. The Company has accounts receivable with original maturities greater than one year related to the sale of film and television program rights (TV/SVOD licensing) and vacation club properties. These receivables are discounted to present value at contract inception and the related revenues are recognized at the discounted amount. The balance of TV/SVOD licensing receivables recorded in other non-current assets was $0.7 billion and $0.8 billion at July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021, respectively. The balance of vacation club receivables recorded in other non-current assets was $0.6 billion at both July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021. The allowance for credit losses and activity for the period ended July 2, 2022 was not material.

For purposes of amortization and impairment, the capitalized content costs are classified based on their predominant monetization strategy as follows: • Individual - lifetime value is predominantly derived from third-party revenues that are directly attributable to the specific film or television title (e.g. theatrical revenues or sales to third-party television programmers) • Group - lifetime value is predominantly derived from third-party revenues that are attributable only to a bundle of titles (e.g. subscription revenue for a DTC service or affiliate fees for a cable television network) Total capitalized produced and licensed content by predominant monetization strategy is as follows: As of July 2, 2022 As of October 2, 2021 Predominantly Monetized Individually Predominantly Monetized Total Predominantly Monetized Individually Predominantly Monetized Total Produced content Released, less amortization $ 4,811 $ 11,841 $ 16,652 $ 4,944 $ 9,779 $ 14,723 Completed, not released 478 2,109 2,587 630 762 1,392 In-process 4,593 6,051 10,644 4,371 4,623 8,994 In development or pre-production 261 315 576 351 162 513 $ 10,143 $ 20,316 30,459 $ 10,296 $ 15,326 25,622 Licensed content - Television programming rights and advances 5,520 6,110 Total produced and licensed content $ 35,979 $ 31,732 Current portion $ 1,902 $ 2,183 Non-current portion $ 34,077 $ 29,549 Amortization of produced and licensed content is as follows: Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Produced content Predominantly monetized individually $ 878 $ 757 $ 2,749 $ 2,127 Predominantly monetized as a group 1,674 1,391 4,795 3,830 2,552 2,148 7,544 5,957 Licensed programming rights and advances 3,258 3,019 10,908 9,781 Total produced and licensed content costs (1) $ 5,810 $ 5,167 $ 18,452 $ 15,738 (1) Primarily included in “Costs of services” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	Income Taxes Interim Period Tax Expense Generally, we record interim period tax expense based on the estimated annual effective tax rate using projections of full-year pre-tax earnings and income tax expense, adjusted for tax expense amounts recognized fully in the quarter they occur. We used this approach to determine tax expense in the first three quarters of fiscal 2022. For interim periods in fiscal 2021, because of the uncertainties associated with the impact of COVID-19 on our projections of full-year pre-tax earnings and income tax expense, our normal approach of calculating interim period tax expense produced an income tax provision that was not meaningful. Accordingly, we calculated interim period fiscal 2021 tax expense based on the year-to-date earnings before tax, a blended U.S. Federal and state statutory tax rate of approximately 23% adjusted for tax expense amounts recognized fully in the quarter they occurred. Unrecognized Tax Benefits During the nine months ended July 2, 2022, the Company decreased its gross unrecognized tax benefits (before interest and penalties) by $0.2 billion from $2.6 billion to $2.4 billion. In the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that our unrecognized tax benefits could change due to resolutions of open tax matters, which would reduce our unrecognized tax benefits by $0.1 billion.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants and is generally classified in one of the following categories: Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are summarized in the following tables by fair value measurement Level: Fair Value Measurement at July 2, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Investments $ 228 $ — $ — $ 228 Derivatives Interest rate — 1 — 1 Foreign exchange — 1,573 — 1,573 Other — 34 — 34 Liabilities Derivatives Interest rate — (1,228) — (1,228) Foreign exchange — (789) — (789) Other — (4) — (4) Other — (368) — (368) Total recorded at fair value $ 228 $ (781) $ — $ (553) Fair value of borrowings $ — $ 48,178 $ 1,552 $ 49,730 Fair Value Measurement at October 2, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Investments $ 950 $ — $ — $ 950 Derivatives Interest rate — 186 — 186 Foreign exchange — 707 — 707 Other — 10 — 10 Liabilities Derivatives Interest rate — (287) — (287) Foreign exchange — (618) — (618) Other — (8) — (8) Other — (375) — (375) Total recorded at fair value $ 950 $ (385) $ — $ 565 Fair value of borrowings $ — $ 58,913 $ 1,411 $ 60,324 The fair values of Level 2 derivatives are primarily determined by internal discounted cash flow models that use observable inputs such as interest rates, yield curves and foreign currency exchange rates. Counterparty credit risk, which is mitigated by master netting agreements and collateral posting arrangements with certain counterparties, had an impact on derivative fair value estimates that was not material. Level 2 other liabilities are primarily arrangements that are valued based on the fair value of underlying investments, which are generally measured using Level 1 and Level 2 fair value techniques. Level 2 borrowings, which include commercial paper, U.S. dollar denominated notes and certain foreign currency denominated borrowings, are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or identical instruments in markets that are not active. Level 3 borrowings include the Asia Theme Park borrowings, which are valued based on the current borrowing cost and credit risk of the Asia Theme Parks as well as prevailing market interest rates. The Company’s financial instruments also include cash, cash equivalents, receivables and accounts payable. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate the fair values.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments	Derivative Instruments The Company manages its exposure to various risks relating to its ongoing business operations according to a risk management policy. The primary risks managed with derivative instruments are interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. The Company’s derivative positions measured at fair value are summarized in the following tables: As of July 2, 2022 Current Other Assets Other Current Liabilities Other Long- Derivatives designated as hedges Foreign exchange $ 581 $ 645 $ (142) $ (222) Interest rate — 1 (1,228) — Other 28 4 (3) (1) Derivatives not designated as hedges Foreign exchange 166 181 (204) (221) Other 2 — — — Gross fair value of derivatives 777 831 (1,577) (444) Counterparty netting (496) (520) 681 335 Cash collateral (received) paid (165) (54) 896 74 Net derivative positions $ 116 $ 257 $ — $ (35) As of October 2, 2021 Current Other Assets Other Current Liabilities Other Long- Derivatives designated as hedges Foreign exchange $ 165 $ 240 $ (122) $ (83) Interest rate — 186 (287) — Other 10 — — — Derivatives not designated as hedges Foreign exchange 183 119 (208) (205) Other (8) — — — Gross fair value of derivatives 350 545 (617) (288) Counterparty netting (301) (360) 460 201 Cash collateral (received) paid (3) (51) 157 73 Net derivative positions $ 46 $ 134 $ — $ (14) Interest Rate Risk Management The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through its borrowing activities. The Company’s objective is to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and on the market value of its borrowings. In accordance with its policy, the Company targets its fixed-rate debt as a percentage of its net debt between a minimum and maximum percentage. The Company primarily uses pay-floating and pay-fixed interest rate swaps to facilitate its interest rate risk management activities. The Company designates pay-floating interest rate swaps as fair value hedges of fixed-rate borrowings effectively converting fixed-rate borrowings to variable-rate borrowings indexed to LIBOR. The total notional amount of the Company’s pay-floating interest rate swaps at both July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021, was $15.1 billion. The following table summarizes fair value hedge adjustments to hedged borrowings: Carrying Amount of Hedged Borrowings Fair Value Adjustments Included July 2, October 2, 2021 July 2, October 2, 2021 Borrowings: Current $ 1,496 $ 505 $ (4) $ 5 Long-term 12,993 15,136 (1,224) (103) $ 14,489 $ 15,641 $ (1,228) $ (98) The following amounts are included in “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income: Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Gain (loss) on: Pay-floating swaps $ (210) $ 165 $ (1,129) $ (559) Borrowings hedged with pay-floating swaps 210 (165) 1,129 559 Benefit (expense) associated with interest accruals on pay-floating swaps 6 36 76 107 The Company may designate pay-fixed interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of interest payments on floating-rate borrowings. Pay-fixed interest rate swaps effectively convert floating-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings. The unrealized gains or losses from these cash flow hedges are deferred in AOCI and recognized in interest expense as the interest payments occur. The Company did not have pay-fixed interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest payments at July 2, 2022 or at October 2, 2021, and gains and losses related to pay-fixed interest rate swaps recognized in earnings for the quarter ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021 were not material. Foreign Exchange Risk Management The Company transacts business globally and is subject to risks associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow fluctuations associated with foreign currency exchange rate changes, enabling management to focus on core business issues and challenges. The Company enters into option and forward contracts that change in value as foreign currency exchange rates change to protect the value of its existing foreign currency assets, liabilities, firm commitments and forecasted but not firmly committed foreign currency transactions. In accordance with policy, the Company hedges its forecasted foreign currency transactions for periods generally not to exceed four years within an established minimum and maximum range of annual exposure. The gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the U.S. dollar equivalent value of the related forecasted transaction, asset, liability or firm commitment. The principal currencies hedged are the euro, Japanese yen, British pound, Chinese yuan and Canadian dollar. Cross-currency swaps are used to effectively convert foreign currency denominated borrowings into U.S. dollar denominated borrowings. The Company designates foreign exchange forward and option contracts as cash flow hedges of firmly committed and forecasted foreign currency transactions. As of July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021, the notional amounts of the Company’s net foreign exchange cash flow hedges were $8.2 billion and $6.9 billion, respectively. Mark-to-market gains and losses on these contracts are deferred in AOCI and are recognized in earnings when the hedged transactions occur, offsetting changes in the value of the foreign currency transactions. Net deferred gains recorded in AOCI for contracts that will mature in the next twelve months total $444 million. The following table summarizes the effect of foreign exchange cash flow hedges on AOCI: Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Gain (loss) recognized in Other Comprehensive Income $ 583 $ (6) $ 704 $ (65) Gain (loss) reclassified from AOCI into the Statements of Operations (1) 16 (8) 42 32 (1) Primarily recorded in revenue. The Company designates cross currency swaps as fair value hedges of foreign currency denominated borrowings. The impact from the change in foreign currency on both the cross currency swap and borrowing is recorded to “Interest expense, net.” The impact from interest rate changes is recorded in AOCI and is amortized over the life of the cross currency swap. As of both July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021, the total notional amounts of the Company’s designated cross currency swaps were Canadian $1.3 billion ($1.0 billion). The following amounts are included in “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income: Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Gain (loss) on: Cross currency swaps $ (30) $ 19 $ (18) $ 75 Borrowings hedged with cross currency swaps 30 (19) 18 (75) Foreign exchange risk management contracts with respect to foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are not designated as hedges and do not qualify for hedge accounting. The notional amounts of these foreign exchange contracts at July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021 were $4.5 billion and $3.5 billion, respectively. The following table summarizes the net foreign exchange gains or losses recognized on foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities and the net foreign exchange gains or losses on the foreign exchange contracts we entered into to mitigate our exposure with respect to foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities by the corresponding line item in which they are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income: Costs and Expenses Interest expense, net Income Tax Expense Quarter Ended: July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, Net gains (losses) on foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities $ (275) $ 16 $ 29 $ (19) $ 96 $ 5 Net gains (losses) on foreign exchange risk management contracts not designated as hedges 257 (42) (28) 20 (89) — Net gains (losses) $ (18) $ (26) $ 1 $ 1 $ 7 $ 5 Nine Months Ended: Net gains (losses) on foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities $ (420) $ 77 $ 17 $ (74) $ 141 $ (29) Net gains (losses) on foreign exchange risk management contracts not designated as hedges 327 (138) (18) 75 (132) 30 Net gains (losses) $ (93) $ (61) $ (1) $ 1 $ 9 $ 1 Commodity Price Risk Management The Company is subject to the volatility of commodities prices and the Company designates certain commodity forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted commodity purchases. Mark-to-market gains and losses on these contracts are deferred in AOCI and are recognized in earnings when the hedged transactions occur, offsetting changes in the value of commodity purchases. The notional amount of these commodities contracts at July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021 and related gains or losses recognized in earnings for the quarter and nine months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021 were not material. Risk Management – Other Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges The Company enters into certain other risk management contracts that are not designated as hedges and do not qualify for hedge accounting. These contracts, which include certain total return swap contracts, are intended to offset economic exposures of the Company and are carried at market value with any changes in value recorded in earnings. The notional amounts of these contracts at July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021 were $0.3 billion and $0.4 billion, respectively. The related gains or losses recognized in earnings were not material for the quarters ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021. Contingent Features and Cash Collateral The Company has master netting arrangements by counterparty with respect to certain derivative financial instrument contracts. The Company may be required to post collateral in the event that a net liability position with a counterparty exceeds limits defined by contract and that vary with the Company’s credit rating. In addition, these contracts may require a counterparty to post collateral to the Company in the event that a net receivable position with a counterparty exceeds limits defined by contract and that vary with the counterparty’s credit rating. If the Company’s or the counterparty’s credit ratings were to fall below investment grade, such counterparties or the Company would also have the right to terminate our derivative contracts, which could lead to a net payment to or from the Company for the aggregate net value by counterparty of our derivative contracts. The aggregate fair values of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features in a net liability position by counterparty were $1,005 million and $244 million on July 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021, respectively.

Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]
New Accounting Pronouncements	New Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in Fiscal 2022 Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. The guidance amends the rules for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod tax allocations and calculating income taxes in interim periods. It also reduces complexity in certain areas, including the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The Company adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements. Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying current GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the transition from the use of LIBOR to an alternative reference rate. The guidance is applicable to contracts entered into before January 1, 2023. The Company adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance In November 2021, the FASB issued guidance requiring annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by analogizing to a grant or contribution accounting model. The new guidance requires the disclosure of the nature of the transactions, the accounting for the transactions, and the effect of the transactions on the financial statements. The

Because the content is functional intellectual property (IP), we recognized substantially all of the consideration to be paid by the customer under the licenses as revenue in prior years when the content was made available under the agreements. Consequently, we have recorded the amounts to terminate the license agreements, net of remaining amounts of deferred revenue, as a reduction of revenue in the current nine-month period.

[1]During the nine months ended July 2, 2022, the Company recognized a reduction in revenue for amounts to early terminate certain license agreements with a customer for film and television content, which was delivered in previous years, in order for the Company to use the content primarily on our direct-to-consumer services (Content License Early Termination). Because the content is functional intellectual property (IP), we recognized substantially all of the consideration to be paid by the customer under the licenses as revenue in prior years when the content was made available under the agreements. Consequently, we have recorded the amounts to terminate the license agreements, net of remaining amounts of deferred revenue, as a reduction of revenue in the current nine-month period.
