Short-term, yes. But Disney and Sony are taking a long-term view. And they know that as soon as this format war is over, and the consumer is presented with a clear and uncontested defacto HD format, they'll sell many more copies on that format (backed by consumer confidence) than they would right now on BD and HD DVD combined.
Hence the exclusive push for BD: long-term profits by pushing the market to a single format.
