Net income rose 19% to $2.2 billion in the three-month period, with revenues up 9% to $13.4 billion – both figures better than forecast.

In December, Frozen became iTunes’ biggest-selling movie of all time, while the soundtrack sold more than any other album in the US in 2014.

Additionally, DVD and Blu-ray sales of the animation broke the three million mark on the first day of their release.
