Cable Networks
Operating income at Cable Networks increased $224 million to $1.7 billion for the quarter due to growth at ESPN. Higher operating income at ESPN was due to increased affiliate revenues and, to a lesser extent, higher advertising revenues, partially offset by increased programming and production costs. Increased affiliate revenues at ESPN were primarily due to contractual rate increases, a reduction in revenue deferrals as a result of changes in provisions related to annual programming commitments in certain affiliate contracts and international subscriber growth. During the quarter, ESPN deferred $120 million of revenue compared to $190 million in the prior-year quarter. Growth in ESPN advertising revenues was primarily due to an increase in units sold and higher rates, partially offset by lower ratings in certain of our programming. The increase in programming costs was driven by contractual rate increases for college sports.
Broadcasting
Operating income at Broadcasting decreased $91 million to $138 million for the quarter due to higher primetime programming costs and a decrease in advertising revenue at the ABC Television Network, partially offset by an increase in advertising revenue at the owned television stations. Higher primetime programming costs were driven by increased production cost write-offs and higher cost acquired programming. The decrease in network advertising revenue was primarily due to lower ratings, partially offset by higher rates and increased online advertising.
Parks and Resorts
Parks and Resorts revenues for the quarter increased 14% to $3.3 billion and segment operating income increased 73% to $383 million. Results for the quarter were driven by increases at our domestic operations and, to a lesser extent, at our international operations. Results at both our domestic and international parks and resorts reflected a favorable impact due to a shift in the timing of the New Year's and Easter holidays relative to our fiscal periods.
Higher operating income at our domestic operations was primarily due to increased guest spending and attendance at both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort, the addition of the Disney Fantasy cruise ship, which launched in March 2012, and higher occupied room nights at the Walt Disney World Resort. These increases were partially offset by increased costs. Increased guest spending was due to higher average ticket prices, food, beverage and merchandise spending and daily hotel room rates. Higher costs were driven by new guest offerings, including investments in systems infrastructure at Walt Disney World Resort and resort expansion at Disneyland Resort, as well as labor and other cost inflation.
Higher operating income from our international operations reflected higher guest spending at Disneyland Paris and increased attendance at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort, partially offset by the absence of business interruption insurance proceeds related to Tokyo Disney Resort, which were collected in the prior-year quarter.
Studio Entertainment
Studio Entertainment revenues increased 13% to $1.3 billion and segment operating income increased $202 million to $118 million.
Higher operating income for the quarter was driven by lower film impairments, due to the write-down on John Carter in the prior year, and an increase in worldwide theatrical distribution.
Worldwide theatrical distribution results reflected the strong performance of Oz The Great And Powerful and Wreck-it Ralph in the current quarter compared to John Carter in the prior-year quarter.
Consumer Products
Consumer Products revenues increased 12% to $763 million and segment operating income increased 35% to $200 million. Higher operating income was primarily due to increases at Merchandise Licensing and at our retail business.
The increase at Merchandise Licensing was driven by the performance of Disney Channel, Mickey and Minnie, and Marvel properties, partially offset by lower revenue from sales of Cars merchandise. Merchandise Licensing growth also benefited from a licensee audit settlement.
At our retail business, higher operating income was driven by higher comparable store sales in North America and Japan and higher online sales in North America.
Interactive
Interactive revenues for the quarter increased 8% to $194 million and segment operating results improved by $16 million to a loss of $54 million. Higher operating results were due to growth at our Japan mobile business from a licensing agreement that started in February 2012 and lower acquisition accounting expense at our social games business.
OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Corporate and Unallocated Shared Expenses
Corporate and unallocated shared expenses increased $9 million to $129 million for the quarter. The increase was driven by the timing of allocations to the operating segments and higher charitable contributions.

Effective Income Tax Rate | 28.8 | % | 34.6 | % | 5.8 | ppt | ||||
The decrease in the effective income tax rate for the quarter was primarily due to favorable tax adjustments related to pre-tax earnings in prior years. These favorable tax adjustments reduced the effective income tax rate by 4.5 percentage points.
Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased $25 million to $108 million for the quarter due to improved operating results at ESPN. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is determined on income after royalties and management fees, financing costs and income taxes.

Cash provided by operations for the first six months of fiscal 2013 decreased 7% or $242 million to $3.3 billion as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2012. The decrease was primarily due to the timing of receivable collections at Media Networks and the timing of disbursements.

Capital expenditures decreased from $2.1 billion to $1.1 billion driven by a decrease at Parks and Resorts due to the final progress payment in the prior-year period for the Disney Fantasy cruise ship. The decrease in Parks and Resorts spending also reflected significant spending in the prior-year period for the expansion of Disney California Adventure and for the construction of Disney's Art of Animation Resort. These decreases were partially offset by higher spending in the current year for Shanghai Disney Resort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release presents EPS excluding the impact of certain items, free cash flow, and aggregate segment operating income, all of which are important financial measures for the Company but are not financial measures defined by GAAP.
These measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of EPS, cash flow or net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. EPS excluding certain items, free cash flow, and aggregate segment operating income as we have calculated them may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
EPS excluding certain items – The Company uses EPS excluding certain items to evaluate the performance of the Company’s operations exclusive of certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period. The Company believes that information about EPS exclusive of these impacts is useful to investors, particularly where the impact of the excluded items is significant in relation to reported earnings, because the measure allows for comparability between periods of the operating performance of the Company’s business and allows investors to evaluate the impact of these items separately from the impact of the operations of the business.
The following table reconciles reported EPS to EPS excluding certain items:

Free cash flow – The Company uses free cash flow (cash provided by operations less investments in parks, resorts and other property), among other measures, to evaluate the ability of its operations to generate cash that is available for purposes other than capital expenditures. Management believes that information about free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to service debt, make strategic acquisitions and investments and pay dividends or repurchase shares.
Aggregate segment operating income – The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on segment operating income, and management uses aggregate segment operating income as a measure of the performance of operating businesses separate from non-operating factors. The Company believes that information about aggregate segment operating income assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of the Company’s portfolio of businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus providing separate insight into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results.
