    Theme parks                          186.1    175.1      11.0       6.3%

    Total revenues                       327.8    340.5    (12.7)     (3.7)%

Resort operating segment revenues increased 3% to EUR 324.4 million from
EUR 316.1 million in the prior-year quarter.

Theme parks revenues increased 6% to EUR 186.1 million from EUR 175.1
million in the prior-year quarter, reflecting an 8% increase in attendance.
Theme parks attendance was driven by more guests visiting from France, which
was partially offset by fewer guests visiting from Spain and United Kingdom.
Average spending per guest declined by 1% due to lower spending on
merchandise items.

Hotels and Disney Village revenues decreased 2% to EUR 124.6 million from
EUR 126.7 million in the prior-year quarter, reflecting a 2.3 percentage
point decrease in hotel occupancy. The decrease in hotel occupancy resulted
from a decrease of 12,000 room nights compared to the prior-year quarter,
primarily driven by fewer guests visiting from Spain and United Kingdom,
partially offset by more guests visiting from France. Average spending per
room remained stable.

Other revenues, which primarily include participant sponsorships,
transportation and other travel services sold to guests, decreased EUR 0.6
million to EUR 13.7 million.

Real estate development operating segment revenues decreased EUR 21.0
million from the prior-year quarter. Prior-year quarter real estate revenues
included EUR 12.5 million of revenue related to the sale of a property in Val
d’Europe which had been subject to a long term ground lease. The remaining
decrease resulted from a reduction in the number of transactions closed in
the period to one, compared to four transactions closed in the prior-year
quarter period.

In the First Quarter, expenses related to the resort activity increased
due to labor cost inflation and marketing and sales expenses. This increase
was partly offset by reduced costs associated with lower real estate
development activity.

Commenting on the results, Philippe Gas, Chief Executive Officer of Euro
Disney S.A.S., said:

“We delivered increased resort revenues during this first quarter despite
the challenging economic environment, by adapting our offers to drive guest
visitation while addressing current consumer purchasing power constraints.
The popularity of our Resort remained strong with Europeans as a short-break
destination offering high quality Disney entertainment.

In 2009, there are even more reasons to visit Disneyland Resort Paris. We
will launch a new, year-long celebration, and will bring more Disney stories
to life at the Walt Disney Studios Park by unveiling the Playhouse Disney
Live on Stage attraction and a Disney Stars and Cars show.

We recognize we are not immune to the impact of a sustained economic
downturn and remain committed to managing costs while continuing to deliver
the quality Disney experience our guests expect from us.”
