EARNINGS RELEASE FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2026
FOX REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2026
REVENUE OF $3.99 BILLION,
NET INCOME OF $175 MILLION, AND
ADJUSTED EBITDA OF $954 MILLION



NEW YORK, NY, May 11, 2026 – Fox Corporation (Nasdaq: FOXA, FOX; “FOX” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The Company reported total quarterly revenue of $3.99 billion as compared to the $4.37 billion reported in the prior year quarter. Distribution revenue increased 3%, driven by 5% growth at the Cable Network Programming segment. Advertising revenue was $1.56 billion as compared to the $2.04 billion reported in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the absence of the prior year broadcast of Super Bowl LIX, partially offset by the impact of an additional NFL Wild Card game and continued digital growth led by the Tubi AVOD service. Content and other revenue increased 12% primarily due to higher sports sublicensing revenue.

The Company reported quarterly net income of $175 million as compared to the $354 million reported in the prior year quarter. Net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders was $166 million ($0.38 per share) as compared to the $346 million ($0.75 per share) reported in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders1 was $570 million ($1.32 per share) as compared to the $507 million ($1.10 per share) reported in the prior year quarter.

Quarterly Adjusted EBITDA2 was $954 million, an increase of $98 million or 11% from the amount reported in the prior year quarter, as the revenue decrease noted above was more than offset by lower expenses. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to lower sports programming rights amortization and production costs, led by the absence of the prior year broadcast of Super Bowl LIX, partially offset by the impact of an additional NFL Wild Card game and costs associated with the launch of Fox One.

Commenting on the results, Executive Chair and Chief Executive Officer Lachlan Murdoch said:

"Our fiscal third quarter results once again demonstrate continued strength and momentum across our business. This strong performance, led by robust core advertising trends, underscores FOX’s leadership in live programming, bolstered by continued strength at our leading free streaming service, Tubi. Against this backdrop, we are proud to be bringing the world’s biggest sporting event to American homes with the FIFA Men's World Cup hosted here in North America across June and July. Meanwhile we remain steadfast in our commitment to delivering long-term shareholder value supported by our strong balance sheet.”
1 Excludes net income effects of Restructuring, impairment and other corporate matters, adjustments to Equity earnings (losses) of affiliates, Non-operating other, net, Tax provision and Noncontrolling interest adjustments. See Note 1 for a description of adjusted net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders and adjusted earnings per share attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures, and a reconciliation of reported net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders and earnings per share attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders to adjusted net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders and adjusted earnings per share attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders.

Content and other revenue increased $23 million or 24%, primarily due to higher sports sublicensing revenue.

Cable Network Programming reported quarterly segment EBITDA of $884 million, an increase of $6 million or 1% from the amount reported in the prior year quarter, as the revenue increase noted above was partially offset by higher expenses.

EARNINGS RELEASE FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2026
NOTE 1 – ADJUSTED NET INCOME AND ADJUSTED EPS

The Company uses net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders and earnings per share (“EPS”) attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders excluding net income effects of Restructuring, impairment and other corporate matters, adjustments to Equity earnings (losses) of affiliates, Non-operating other, net, Tax provision and Noncontrolling interest adjustments (“Adjusted Net Income” 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.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are not measures of performance under GAAP and should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders and EPS as reported in accordance with GAAP. However, management uses these measures in comparing the Company’s historical performance and believes that they provide meaningful and comparable information to management, investors and equity analysts to assist in their analysis of the Company’s performance relative to prior periods and the Company’s competitors.

The following table reconciles net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders and EPS attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

EARNINGS RELEASE FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2026
NOTE 2 – ADJUSTED EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Revenues less Operating expenses and Selling, general and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA does not include: Depreciation and amortization, Restructuring, impairment and other corporate matters, Equity earnings (losses) of affiliates, Interest expense, net, Non-operating other, net and Income tax expense. Effective July 1, 2025, the Company no longer removes the impact of amortization of cable distribution investments when calculating Adjusted EBITDA. Prior periods were not restated as the impact of the change is immaterial to the calculation.

Management believes that information about Adjusted EBITDA assists all users of the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of the Company’s portfolio of businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect Net income, thus providing insight into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results. Adjusted EBITDA provides management, investors and equity analysts a measure to analyze the operating performance of the Company’s business and its enterprise value against historical data and competitors’ data, although historical results, including Adjusted EBITDA, may not be indicative of future results (as operating performance is highly contingent on many factors, including customer tastes and preferences).

Adjusted EBITDA is considered a non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, net income, cash flow 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 charges, which are significant components in assessing the Company’s financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The following table reconciles net income to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
