In its latest earnings report for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, Fox Corporation announced revenues of $3.74 billion, marking a 5% increase from the previous year, alongside a net income of $609 million. The company also revealed plans for a $1.5 billion accelerated share repurchase transaction, highlighting its commitment to shareholder value.
Key financial metrics showed a mixed performance with adjusted EBITDA rising by 2% to $1.07 billion, driven by increased revenues across its segments. Distribution revenues saw a 3% growth, while advertising revenues rose by 6%, fueled by digital growth and strong sports and news pricing. However, net income saw a decline from the previous year, attributed to higher expenses in digital marketing and content costs.
The company’s television segment reported a 5% increase in revenues, supported by digital growth and higher sports pricing, while the cable network programming segment saw a 4% rise in revenues, primarily due to higher news pricing. Despite these gains, the company faced increased expenses, particularly in entertainment programming rights and digital content costs.
Looking ahead, Fox Corporation remains optimistic about its financial outlook, buoyed by strong audience engagement and robust advertising demand across its platforms. The company’s strategic focus on leveraging its balance sheet through share repurchases underscores its confidence in delivering sustained value to shareholders.
