Tokyo Disneyland Resort attendance decreases slightly for first quarter of fiscal year ending March 2006

The Oriental Land Company, owner of the Tokyo Disneyland Resort, which includes Tokyo Disneyland theme park and Tokyo DisneySea theme park, recently released First Quarter results for fiscal year 2006.

The Oriental Land Company's theme park revenues decreased this quarter 1.5 percent compared to the first quarter of the previous year to 57,624 million Yen, despite new attractions added to the Tokyo Disneyland Resort.

At Tokyo Disneyland, “Disney’s Rock Around The Mouse,” a special event featuring American oldies from the 1950s was introduced in April.

At Tokyo DisneySea, “Aladdin’s Whole New World,” a special event set on the sea featuring Aladdin and his friends, was introduced in May and met with an enthusiastic response.

Despite introduction of these events, the total number of guests at the two Disney theme parks declined slightly compared with the first quarter of the previous fiscal year due to the higher number of guests in that period caused by introduction of a new attraction, “Buzz Lightyear’s Astro Blasters” at Tokyo Disneyland in April 2004.

Revenues per guest at the Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea theme parks increased slightly from the first quarter of the previous fiscal year due to factors including favorable sales of regular products at Tokyo Disneyland and new products such as special event-related products at Tokyo DisneySea.

The Tokyo DisneySea Hotel MiraCosta introduced various events including “Tokyo DisneySea Early Entry,” a special program exclusive to Disney hotel guests which allows entry to the park thirty minutes before it opens to the general public, introduced as part of the “Disney Ambassador Hotel ‘Gala’ 5th Anniversary” program commemorating the 5th year of hotel operations. However, occupancy rate at the Tokyo Disneyland Resort hotels dropped slightly compared with the first quarter of the previous year.

As a result, Oriental Land Company theme park revenues decreased 1.5 percent compared to the first quarter of the previous year to 57,624 million Yen.
