First-half profits up at Japan Disneyland operator (http://biz.yahoo.com/rc/021106/leisure_japan_disneyland_3.html) - Reuters, 11/6/02

QuikQuote: The operator of Japan's Disney amusement parks, Oriental Land Co Ltd (Tokyo:4661.T - News), said on Wednesday its first-half group operating profit rose 41.2 percent as attendance got a big splash from its new aqua-themed resort.
Oriental Land, which operates Tokyo Disneyland and the adjacent Tokyo DisneySea, said April-September group operating profit totalled 18.2 billion yen ($149.2 million) compared with a profit of 12.9 billion yen for the same period a year earlier.

Not surprising, since the second park wasn't open during this same period last year.


I'm surprised that the number isn't higher. They added a whole new park and only made about 50% more money. Of course, summer is just going to be kind of flat anyway because of the heat in Tokyo.

Tokyo Disney Resort NEEEEEEEDS a water park!
