The company, which is facing pressure from consumers who are turning away from traditional pay-TV and movie theaters, declared that it was on course to reach its objectives after reducing losses in its streaming division with the help of new customers and price increases.
With the exception of India, Disney+ added more than six million new members worldwide between January and March. There are already more than 117 million users of the streaming service.
The rise is significant for a service that, despite recent growth flagging, is seen as essential to Disney’s future.
Disney’s stock, meanwhile, fell more than 8% as investors continued to be pessimistic about its future.
