**<u>NEWS CORPORATION REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS FOR FISCAL 2026</u>**

**<u>FISCAL 2026 FIRST QUARTER KEY FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• First quarter revenues were $2.14 billion, a 2% increase compared to $2.10 billion in the prior year, driven by growth at the Dow Jones and Digital Real Estate Services segments, while net income from continuing operations in the quarter was $150 million, a 1% increase compared to $149 million in the prior year**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• First quarter Total Segment EBITDA was $340 million, a 5% increase compared to $325 million in the prior year**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **For the quarter, reported EPS from continuing operations were $0.20 as compared to $0.21 in the prior year - Adjusted EPS were $0.22 compared to $0.20 in the prior year**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Dow Jones revenues for the quarter were $586 million, a 6% increase compared to the prior year, underpinned by higher professional information business revenue growth of 16% at Risk & Compliance and higher digital circulation revenues**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Revenues at Move, operator of Realtor.com**<sup>®</sup>**, were $152 million, a 9% increase from the prior year, the highest quarterly year-over-year growth since the second quarter of fiscal 2022**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Book Publishing Segment EBITDA was impacted by a $13 million write-off of a customer receivable**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• News Media posted a strong improvement in profitability from the prior year driven by continued cost savings initiatives and higher pricing on circulation and subscriptions**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• The Company accelerated the rate of share repurchases in the first quarter, which currently is running at over four times the fiscal 2025 pace**

**NEW YORK, NY – November 6, 2025 –** News Corporation ("News Corp" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: NWS, NWSA; ASX: NWS, NWSLV) today reported financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Commenting on the results, Chief Executive Robert Thomson said:

*"Following a sterling performance in fiscal 2025 – one that marked a record year for profitability on a continuing operations basis – News Corp continued to increase both revenue and profitability in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, led by strength at Dow Jones and Digital Real Estate Services, and bolstered by digital and AI-related revenues.*

*Overall revenue for the period rose 2 percent versus the prior year to $2.1 billion, net income from continuing operations was $150 million, up from $149 million last year, and Total Segment EBITDA increased by 5 percent to $340 million. The positive results came despite an uncharacteristically weak performance in Book Publishing, which has been showing signs of improvement in recent weeks. EPS from continuing operations were $0.20 as compared to $0.21 in the prior year, while our adjusted EPS rose to $0.22 from $0.20.* 

*Clearly, our current cash position is robust, and we expect to generate strong free cash flow this fiscal year, and have thus materially increased the rate of our share buybacks. We believe our shares are undervalued, given the sum of our valuable parts and our profit trajectory, and we will continue to focus on ways and means to maximize shareholder value.*

*It is also patently clear that the value of IP in the age of AI is misconceived. Information and sophisticated data are the essence of AI, and without these essential ingredients, AI is but empty, ignorant infrastructure. Electricity without alacrity. Buildings without billings. Chips without chops.*

*Thankfully, we are seeing a positive trend with both enlightened companies and wise courts deciding that creativity and content must not be stolen, but purchased for a reasonable price. Courtship and courts are both*

*crucial components of our strategy. Our wooing has gained increasing traction, and we expect to announce further partnerships in the near future, which we expect to have a positive impact on our results."*

**FIRST QUARTER RESULTS**

The Company reported fiscal 2026 first quarter total revenues of $2.14 billion, a 2% increase compared to $2.10 billion in the prior year period, primarily driven by higher circulation and subscription revenues at the Dow Jones segment and higher real estate revenues at the Digital Real Estate Services segment, and includes a $4 million positive impact from foreign currency fluctuations. The increase was partly offset by lower revenues at the Book Publishing segment. Adjusted Revenues (which excludes the foreign currency impact, acquisitions and divestitures as defined in Note 2) increased 2% compared to the prior year.

Net income from continuing operations for the quarter was $150 million, a 1% increase compared to $149 million in the prior year, primarily driven by higher Total Segment EBITDA, largely offset by lower Other, net.

The Company reported first quarter Total Segment EBITDA of $340 million, a 5% increase compared to $325 million in the prior year primarily due to strong contributions from the Digital Real Estate Services, Dow Jones and News Media segments. Results include a $13 million write-off of a customer receivable at the Book Publishing segment. Adjusted Total Segment EBITDA (as defined in Note 2) increased 5%.

Net income from continuing operations per share attributable to News Corporation stockholders was $0.20 as compared to $0.21 in the prior year. Adjusted EPS (as defined in Note 3) were $0.22 compared to $0.20 in the prior year.

**Dow Jones**

Revenues in the quarter increased $34 million, or 6%, compared to the prior year, driven by higher circulation and subscription revenues from continued growth in the professional information business and higher digital circulation revenues. Digital revenues at Dow Jones in the quarter represented 84% of total revenues compared to 82% in the prior year. Adjusted Revenues increased 5%.

Circulation and subscription revenues increased $32 million, or 7%, reflecting a 10% increase in professional information business revenues, led by 16% growth in Risk & Compliance revenues to $94 million, which includes a modest contribution from the recent acquisitions of Dragonfly Intelligence and Oxford Analytica, and 7% growth in Dow Jones Energy revenues to $73 million. Factiva revenues improved driven by the resolution of a customer dispute, as well as a modest benefit from an increased number of new customers. Circulation revenues increased 3% compared to the prior year, primarily driven by the conversion of customers from introductory promotions to higher pricing and the continued growth in digital-only subscriptions, partly offset by lower print volume. Digital circulation revenues accounted for 75% of circulation revenues for the quarter, compared to 72% in the prior year.

During the first quarter, total average subscriptions to Dow Jones' consumer products were nearly 6.4 million, an 8% increase compared to the prior year. Digital-only subscriptions to Dow Jones' consumer products grew 10% to almost 5.9 million. Total subscriptions to *The Wall Street Journal* grew 8% compared to the prior year, to over 4.6 million average subscriptions in the quarter.

Advertising revenues were flat for the quarter as a 2% increase in digital advertising revenues was offset by a 4% decrease in print advertising revenues. Digital advertising accounted for 68% of total advertising revenues for the quarter, compared to 67% in the prior year.

Segment EBITDA for the quarter increased $13 million, or 10%, primarily as a result of the higher revenues discussed above, partially offset by higher employee and marketing costs. Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 11%.

**Digital Real Estate Services**

Revenues in the quarter increased $22 million, or 5%, compared to the prior year, driven by higher revenues at both Move and REA Group. The increases were partly offset by a $7 million, or 1%, negative impact from foreign currency fluctuations. Segment EBITDA in the quarter increased $18 million, or 13%, compared to the prior year, due to higher contribution from REA Group, which benefited from the absence of the $12 million of deal costs related to the withdrawn offer to acquire Rightmove in the prior year, and improved results at Move, partly offset

by a $4 million, or 3%, negative impact from foreign currency fluctuations. Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 7% and 16%, respectively.

In the quarter, revenues at REA Group increased $9 million, or 3%, to $327 million, driven by higher Australian residential revenues due to price increases and growth in add-on products, and higher financial services revenues, partly offset by a $7 million, or 2%, negative impact from foreign currency fluctuations. Constant currency revenues were up 5%. In September, REA India completed the divestment of PropTiger and following recent regulatory changes impacting the commercial viability of the Housing Edge offering, REA India made the decision to discontinue this business in October. Australian national residential buy listing volumes in the quarter were down 8% compared to the prior year, with listings in Sydney down 6% and Melbourne down 4%.

Move's revenues in the quarter increased $13 million, or 9%, to $152 million, primarily as a result of higher sales of RealPRO Select<sup>SM</sup> as Move shifts its focus to more premium offerings with higher revenues per lead and revenue growth in seller, new homes and rentals. The increase was partially offset by the ongoing impact of the macroeconomic environment on the housing market, which led to lower lead volumes. Based on Move's internal data, average monthly unique users of Realtor.com<sup>®</sup>'s web and mobile sites for the fiscal first quarter decreased 6% compared to the prior year to 72 million. Lead volume was down 1% compared to the prior year period, moderating significantly from recent quarters' declines. September visits for Realtor.com<sup>®</sup>, according to Comscore, were 254 million, and it continued to gain share among other real estate portals.

**Book Publishing**

Revenues in the quarter decreased $12 million, or 2%, compared to the strong prior year performance, which included higher sales from *Hillbilly Elegy* by J.D. Vance, and were also impacted by softer consumer spending within the industry and the timing of ordering from certain customers. The decrease was partly offset by a $5 million, or 1%, positive impact from foreign currency fluctuations. Key titles in the quarter included *Katabasis* by R.F. Kuang, *An Inside Job* by Daniel Silva and *We Are All Guilty Here* by Karin Slaughter. Adjusted Revenues decreased 4%.

Digital sales decreased 9% compared to the prior year due to an 11% decline in audiobook sales and 9% decline in e-book sales, driven by mix of titles and the difficult prior year comparison. Digital sales represented 23% of Consumer revenues for the quarter compared to 25% for the prior year period. Backlist sales represented approximately 65% of Consumer revenues in the quarter compared to 64% in the prior year.

Segment EBITDA for the quarter decreased $23 million, or 28%, compared to the prior year, primarily due to a $13 million write-off of a customer receivable, the lower revenues discussed above and higher employee costs, partially offset by lower costs related to lower sales volume. Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 28%.

**News Media**

Revenues in the quarter increased $4 million, or 1%, as compared to the prior year, primarily driven by higher circulation and subscription revenues and a $3 million, or 1%, positive impact from foreign currency fluctuations, partly offset by lower advertising revenues. Adjusted Revenues for the segment increased 1% compared to the prior year.

Circulation and subscription revenues increased $7 million, or 2%, compared to the prior year, benefiting from increased cover prices and subscription pricing in the U.K. and Australia, digital subscriber growth, as well as a $3 million, or 1%, positive impact from foreign currency fluctuations, partially offset by print volume declines.

Advertising revenues decreased $7 million, or 4%, compared to the prior year, primarily due to lower print and digital advertising revenues at News Corp Australia, partly offset by higher advertising revenues at the *New York Post* and a $1 million positive impact from foreign currency fluctuations.

In the quarter, Segment EBITDA increased $12 million, or 67%, compared to the prior year, driven by cost savings initiatives, lower Talk costs and the higher revenues discussed above. Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 53%.

Digital revenues represented 38% of News Media segment revenues in the quarter, flat compared to the prior year, and represented 36% of the combined revenues of the newspaper mastheads. Digital subscribers and users across key properties within the News Media segment are summarized below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Closing digital subscribers at News Corp Australia as of September 30, 2025 were 1,162,000 (993,000 for news mastheads), compared to 1,127,000 (979,000 for news mastheads) in the prior year (Source: Internal data)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *The Times* and *Sunday Times* closing digital subscribers, including the *Times Literary Supplement*, as of September 30, 2025 were 640,000, compared to 600,000 in the prior year (Source: Internal data).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *The Sun*'s digital offering reached 77 million global monthly unique users in September 2025, compared to 80 million in the prior year (Source: Meta Pixel)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *New York Post*'s digital network reached 94 million unique users in September 2025, compared to 103 million in the prior year (Source: Google Analytics)

**CASH FLOW**

The following table presents a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations to free cash flow:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | For the three months ended<br>September 30, | For the three months ended<br>September 30, |
| | 2025 | 2024 |
| | (in millions) | (in millions) |
| Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations | $85 | $26 |
| Less: Capital expenditures | (81) | (75) |
| Free cash flow | $4 | $(49) |

---

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $85 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $59 million higher than net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $26 million in the prior year, primarily due to lower working capital and higher Total Segment EBITDA, partially offset by higher tax payments.

Free cash flow in the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $4 million compared to $(49) million in the prior year. The improvement in free cash flow was primarily due to higher cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, as mentioned above, partly offset by higher capital expenditures.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures. Free cash flow excludes cash flows from discontinued operations. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, since companies and investors may differ as to what items should be included in the calculation of free cash flow.

Free cash flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the net change in cash and cash equivalents as presented in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows prepared in accordance with GAAP, which incorporates all cash movements during the period.

The Company believes free cash flow provides useful information to management and investors about the Company's liquidity and cash flow trends.

**COMPARISON OF NON-GAAP TO U.S. GAAP INFORMATION**

Adjusted Revenues, Total Segment EBITDA, Adjusted Total Segment EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA, adjusted net income attributable to News Corporation stockholders, Adjusted EPS, constant currency revenues and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures contained in this earnings release. The Company believes these measures are important tools for investors and analysts to use in assessing the Company's underlying business performance and to provide for more meaningful comparisons of the Company's operating performance between periods. These measures also allow investors and analysts to view the Company's business from the same perspective as Company management. These non-GAAP measures may be different than similar measures used by other companies and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations for the differences between non-GAAP measures used in this earnings release and comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP are included in Notes 1, 2, 3 and 4 and the reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations to free cash flow is included above.

**NOTE 1 – TOTAL SEGMENT EBITDA**

Segment EBITDA is defined as revenues less operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Segment EBITDA does not include: depreciation and amortization, impairment and restructuring charges, equity losses of affiliates, interest (expense) income, net, other, net, income tax (expense) benefit and net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax. Management believes that Segment EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company's business segments because it is the primary measure used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of and allocate resources within the Company's businesses. Segment EBITDA provides management, investors and equity analysts with a measure to analyze the operating performance of each of the Company's business segments and its enterprise value against historical data and competitors' data, although historical results may not be indicative of future results (as operating performance is highly contingent on many factors, including customer tastes and preferences).

Total Segment EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, net income (loss) from continuing operations, cash flow from continuing operations and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. In addition, this measure does not reflect cash available to fund requirements and excludes items, such as depreciation and amortization and impairment and restructuring charges, which are significant components in assessing the Company's financial performance. The Company believes that the presentation of Total Segment EBITDA provides useful information regarding the Company's operations and other factors that affect the Company's reported results. Specifically, the Company believes that by excluding certain one-time or non-cash items such as impairment and restructuring charges and depreciation and amortization, as well as potential distortions between periods caused by factors such as financing and capital structures and changes in tax positions or regimes, the Company provides users of its consolidated financial statements with insight into both its core operations as well as the factors that affect reported results between periods but which the Company believes are not representative of its core business. As a result, users of the Company's consolidated financial statements are better able to evaluate changes in the core operating results of the Company across different periods. The following table reconciles net income from continuing operations to Total Segment EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

**NOTE 2 – ADJUSTED REVENUES, ADJUSTED TOTAL SEGMENT EBITDA AND ADJUSTED SEGMENT EBITDA**

The Company uses revenues, Total Segment EBITDA and Segment EBITDA excluding the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, fees and costs, net of indemnification, related to the claims and investigations arising out of certain conduct at *The News of the World* (the "U.K. Newspaper Matters"), charges for other significant, non-ordinary course legal or regulatory matters ("litigation charges") and foreign currency fluctuations ("Adjusted Revenues," "Adjusted Total Segment EBITDA" and "Adjusted Segment EBITDA," respectively) to evaluate the performance of the Company's core business operations exclusive of certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period such as the unpredictability and volatility of currency fluctuations. The Company calculates the impact of foreign currency fluctuations for businesses reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar by multiplying the results for each quarter in the current period by the difference between the average exchange rate for that quarter and the average exchange rate in effect during the corresponding quarter of the prior year and totaling the impact for all quarters in the current period.

The calculation of Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted Total Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, since companies and investors may differ as to what type of events warrant adjustment. Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted Total Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are not measures of performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be construed as substitutes for amounts determined under GAAP as measures of performance. However, management uses these measures in comparing the Company's historical performance and believes that they provide meaningful and comparable information to investors to assist in their analysis of our performance relative to prior periods and our competitors.

The following table reconciles reported revenues and reported Total Segment EBITDA to Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted Total Segment EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

**NOTE 3 – ADJUSTED NET INCOME (LOSS) ATTRIBUTABLE TO NEWS CORPORATION STOCKHOLDERS AND ADJUSTED EPS**

The Company uses net income (loss) attributable to News Corporation stockholders from continuing operations and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations ("EPS") excluding expenses related to U.K. Newspaper Matters, litigation charges, impairment and restructuring charges and "Other, net", net of tax, recognized by the Company or its equity method investees, as well as the settlement of certain pre-Separation tax matters ("adjusted net income (loss) attributable to News Corporation stockholders" and "adjusted EPS," respectively), to evaluate the performance of the Company's operations exclusive of certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period, as well as certain non-operational items. The calculation of adjusted net income (loss) attributable to News Corporation stockholders and adjusted EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, since companies and investors may differ as to what type of events warrant adjustment. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to News Corporation stockholders and adjusted EPS are not measures of performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be construed as substitutes for consolidated net income (loss) attributable to News Corporation stockholders from continuing operations and net income (loss) per share from continuing operations as determined under GAAP as a measure of performance. However, management uses these measures in comparing the Company's historical performance and believes that they provide meaningful and comparable information to investors to assist in their analysis of our performance relative to prior periods and our competitors.

**NOTE 4 – CONSTANT CURRENCY REVENUES**

The Company believes that the presentation of revenues excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations ("constant currency revenues") provides useful information regarding the performance of the Company's core business operations exclusive of distortions between periods caused by the unpredictability and volatility of currency fluctuations. The Company calculates the impact of foreign currency fluctuations for businesses reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar as described in Note 2.

Constant currency revenues are not measures of performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be construed as substitutes for revenues as determined under GAAP as measures of performance. However, management uses these measures in comparing the Company's historical performance and believes that they provide meaningful and comparable information to investors to assist in their analysis of our performance relative to prior periods and our competitors.

The following table reconciles reported revenues to constant currency revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025:
