Here is what Disney had to say about the release of the report:
In March 2012, The Walt Disney Company published a series of time-bound, measurable targets to track its Citizenship performance. The 2013 Performance Summary is our second disclosure of progress against those targets. We plan to continue to report on an annual basis so that we can track our performance year-over-year. Along with this Performance Summary, we have published stories and other performance-related information on our website providing a more frequent, relevant, and transparent view of our Citizenship efforts.
