News Corp
News Corp is a media and information company that makes money by selling news, books, digital subscriptions, and advertising. Its best-known businesses include newspapers, digital news sites, book publishing, and specialist information services. It serves consumers who read its journalism, subscribers who pay for premium content, and advertisers who want access to those audiences. The company’s business is built around content creation and distribution. Its news brands produce reporting and analysis for readers and businesses, while its publishing arm sells books through retail and digital channels. In addition, News Corp owns information services that provide market data, research, and business content to professional customers who rely on timely, trusted information. What makes News Corp different is that it sits at the intersection of old and new media. It still owns traditional print titles, but it also earns a meaningful share of its money from recurring subscriptions and digital products. That mix gives it multiple ways to monetize the same underlying asset: original content that attracts attention, builds loyalty, and can be sold directly to readers or packaged for advertisers and professional users.

Strong quarter: News Corp said revenue rose 9% to $2.2 billion, segment EBITDA rose 18% to $343 million, and margin improved to 15.7%.
Profit streak: Management highlighted the 12th straight quarter of profitability growth on a continuing operations basis and said the company remains on track for another record fiscal year.
Buybacks: The company accelerated share repurchases, buying back $193 million in the quarter and $459 million year to date, supported by strong free cash flow and the Foxtel shareholder loan repayment.
AI monetization: Management said News Corp is negotiating more AI licensing deals, expects a meaningful impact from the Meta and OpenAI partnerships, and also sees AI as a tool to improve internal efficiency.
Segment strength: Dow Jones, Digital Real Estate Services and Book Publishing all posted double-digit profit growth, while News Media saw higher revenue but lower profit due to California Post launch costs.
Outlook: Management kept an upbeat tone on the fourth quarter, expecting strong results, continued Dow Jones growth, improving digital real estate momentum, and further benefits from pricing actions and licensing revenue.
