Effects as of March 18 of the Tohoku Pacific Earthquake
Oriental Land Co., Ltd. would first like to send our heartfelt condolences to all those
affected by the Tohoku Pacific Earthquake on March 11, 2011. From our heart, we
pray for the health and well-being of everyone, and hope for the earliest possible
recovery of the affected areas.
We would also like to notify the effects of the earthquake on our company, summarized
as follows:
1. Casualties and Damages
(1) Casualties
As previously notified on March 14, there have been no injuries or casualties
reported among our guests, Cast Members and other employees.
(2) Damages
a. Tokyo Disneyland / Tokyo DisneySea Parks
There was no major damage to buildings and facilities, nor was there any
ground liquefaction*
inside the Parks except for a portion of the parking
area. Following full inspections, the safety of all buildings and facilities
inside the Parks has been confirmed and the Parks are in condition for
re-opening.
However, due to the lack of stable electricity supply and other concerns, we
have determined to further postpone the opening of the Parks. The
reopening of the Parks will be duly announced when the date has been
determined.
*: Liquefaction has only occurred in a portion of the flat parking areas. Recovery efforts
are swiftly underway.
b. Disney Hotels
There was no major damage to the buildings or facilities. Also, work on
confirming the safety of the hotels has been completed.
The date of re-opening is not yet determined, as the hotels are scheduled to reopen at the same time as the Parks.
c. Ikspiari
There was no major damage to the buildings or facilities. Also, work on
confirming the safety of Ikspiari has been completed.
The date of re-opening is not yet determined.
d. Disney Resort Line
There was no major damage to the buildings or facilities. Although there is
no impediment to the monorail operations, the date of resuming operations
will be determined depending on the status of the other facilities within
Tokyo Disney Resort.
e. Cirque du Soleil Theatre Tokyo
Although there was no major damage to the building or facilities, inspection
of the equipment is still ongoing.
The date of re-opening is not yet determined.
2. Effects on our Business Results
Effects from this earthquake to our buildings and facilities were negligible. We are
currently reviewing the ramifications to our business results due to the clossure of the
Parks and other facilities
