To date, 52% of Home's worldwide take comes from overseas, so we can (maybe) expect a grand total of $380 million to $420 million when all the box office receipts are in.

Add On: Errk. Tomorrowland, on top of less-than-enthusiastic reviews, has a weak first weekend?

From Forbes:

... The power of positive thinking could not save Brad Bird’s Tomorrowland. Walt Disney's DIS -0.12% $190 million sci-fi adventure earned $32.159 million on its opening Fri-Sun weekend and an estimated $41m over the long holiday. Long-story short, that’s not a great number, just a bit above the $25m-$30m debuts of mega-budget whiffs like John Carter, Prince of Persia, Jack the Giant Slayer, and Battleship. ...

So Incredibles II, maybe that's a good next step.
