| Total amortization expense | $2,819 | $2,758 | $3,963 | $3,888 |
NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE
Fair value measurements are required to be disclosed using a three-tiered fair value hierarchy which distinguishes market participant assumptions into the following categories: (i) inputs that are quoted prices in active markets (“Level 1”); (ii) inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities (“Level 2”); and (iii) inputs that require the entity to use its own assumptions about market participant assumptions (“Level 3”).
The following tables present information about financial assets and redeemable noncontrolling interests carried at fair value on a recurring basis:
| Fair value measurements | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |
| (in millions) | ||||
| Investments in equity securities | $955 | $955(a) | $— | $— |
| Redeemable noncontrolling interests | (57) | — | — | (57)(b) |
| Total | $898 | $955 | $— | $(57) |
| Fair value measurements | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |
| (in millions) | ||||
| Investments in equity securities | $1,249 | $1,249(a) | $— | $— |
| Redeemable noncontrolling interests | (261) | — | — | (261)(b) |
| Total | $988 | $1,249 | $— | $(261) |
| (a) | The investments categorized as Level 1 primarily represent an investment in equity securities of Flutter Entertainment plc (“Flutter”) with a readily determinable fair value. |
|---|---|
| (b) | See Note 11—Additional Financial Information. The Company utilizes both the market and income approach valuation techniques for its Level 3 fair value measures. Inputs to such measures could include observable market data obtained from independent sources such as broker quotes and recent market transactions for similar assets. It is the Company’s policy to maximize the use of observable inputs in the measurement of its Level 3 fair value measurements. To the extent observable inputs are not available, the Company utilizes unobservable inputs based upon the assumptions market participants would use in valuing the redeemable noncontrolling interests. Examples of utilized unobservable inputs are future cash flows and long-term growth rates. |
Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments exclusive of borrowings, such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables approximates fair value.
The following table sets forth the fair value and carrying value of the Company’s Borrowings:
| As ofDecember 31,2025 | As ofJune 30,2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | ||
| Borrowings | ||
| Fair value | $6,739 | $6,625 |
| Carrying value | $6,604 | $6,602 |
Fair value is generally determined by reference to market values resulting from trading on a national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market (a Level 1 measurement).
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with several financial institutions. The Company has deposits held with banks that exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit and, therefore, bear minimal credit risk.
Generally, the Company does not require collateral to secure receivables. As of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the Company had no individual customers that accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s receivables.
NOTE 5. BORROWINGS
Borrowings include senior notes (See Note 9—Borrowings in the 2025 Form 10-K under the heading “Public Debt – Senior Notes Issued”). The Company is party to a credit agreement providing a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with a sub-limit of$150 million available for the issuance of letters of credit and a maturity date of June 2028 (See Note 9—Borrowings in the 2025 Form 10-K under the heading “Revolving Credit Agreement”). As of December 31, 2025, there wereno borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit agreement.
NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Stock Repurchase Program
The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) previously authorized a stock repurchase program under which the Company can repurchase $7 billion of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”). In August 2025, the Board authorized incremental stock repurchases of an additional $5 billion of Common Stock. With this increase, the Company’s total stock repurchase authorization is now $12 billion. The program has no time limit and may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.
Repurchased shares are retired and reduce the number of shares issued and outstanding. The Company allocates the amount of the repurchase price over par value between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings.
In October 2025, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement in which the Company paid a third-party financial institution $700 million and $800 million and received initial deliveries of approximately 8.5 million and 10.9 million shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively, representing 80% of the value of such payments in shares, calculated at a price of $65.51 and $58.83 per share, which were the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) closing share prices of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively, on October 30, 2025. Upon final settlement of the ASR, the Company may receive final deliveries of additional shares of such Common Stock. The number of shares, if any, to be received upon final settlement will be determined using the volume-weighted average market price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq during the term of the ASR agreement less a discount, less the initial deliveries. The Company accounted for the ASR agreement astwo separate transactions. The initial deliveries of Common Stock were accounted for as a treasury stock transaction recorded on the acquisition date. The final settlements of Common Stock are accounted for as a forward contract indexed to the Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable, and qualified as an equity transaction. The Company anticipates completing the transaction during the second half of fiscal 2026.
Inclusive of the ASR agreement, the Company repurchased approximately 25 million shares of Common Stock for approximately $1.8 billion during the six months ended December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s remaining stock repurchase authorization was approximately $3.6 billion.
Stockholders Agreement
On September 8, 2025, the Company entered into a new stockholders agreement (the “New Stockholders Agreement”) with LGC Holdco, LLC (“LGC Holdco”) and certain Murdoch family trusts (collectively, the “LGC Family Trusts”). In connection with this, the stockholders agreement between the Company and the Murdoch Family Trust (See Note 11—Stockholders’ Equity in the 2025 Form 10-K) was terminated. The New Stockholders Agreement limits the LGC Family Trusts and LGC Holdco from owning, collectively with certain Murdoch family members (the “Murdoch Individuals”), more than 44% of the outstanding voting power of the shares of Class B Common Stock and requires the LGC Family Trusts and LGC Holdco to forfeit votes to the extent necessary to ensure that the Murdoch Individuals, the LGC Family Trusts and LGC Holdco collectively do not exceed 44% of the outstanding voting power of the shares of Class B Common Stock, except where a Murdoch Individual votes their own shares differently from the others on any matter. In addition, the New Stockholders Agreement provides the Company with a right of first refusal with respect to any underwritten public offering of the shares of Class B Common Stock held by the LGC Family Trusts or LGC Holdco to anyone other than the Murdoch Individuals and their affiliates, subject to certain exceptions, and provides the LGC Family Trusts and LGC Holdco with certain customary registration rights.
Dividends
The following table summarizes the dividends declared per share on both the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock:
| For the three months ended December 31, | For the six months ended December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |
| Cash dividend per share | $— | $— | $0.28 | $0.27 |
Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.28 per share on both the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock. The dividend declared is payable on March 25, 2026 with a record date for determining dividend entitlements of March 4, 2026.
NOTE 7. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has equity-based compensation plans, including the Fox Corporation 2019 Shareholder Alignment Plan (See Note 12—Equity-Based Compensation in the 2025 Form 10-K).
The following table summarizes the Company’s equity-based compensation:
| For the three months ended December 31, | For the six months ended December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |
| (in millions) | ||||
| Equity-based compensation | $32 | $34 | $60 | $68 |
| Intrinsic value of all settled equity-based awards | $25 | $25 | $181 | $103 |
| Tax benefit on settled equity-based awards | $3 | $2 | $29 | $17 |
The Company’s equity-based awards are settled in Class A Common Stock. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s total estimated compensation cost, not yet recognized, related to non-vested equity awards held by the Company’s employees was approximately$160 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period betweentwo andthree years.
The computation of diluted earnings per share did not include stock options or performance-based stock options outstanding during each period presented if their inclusion would have been antidilutive, and, for those shares that are contingently issuable, if all necessary conditions have not been satisfied for the periods presented.
Awards Vested, Granted and Exercised
Restricted Stock Units
During the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 1.6 million and 1.5 million restricted stock units (“RSUs”) vested and approximately 1.2 million and 1.7 million RSUs were granted, respectively. These RSUs generally vest in equal annual installments over athree-year period subject to participants’ continued employment with the Company.
Performance-Based Stock Options
During the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 1.7 million and 2.5 million performance-based stock options were exercised and approximately 2.4 million and 3.4 million were granted, respectively, which will vest in full at the end of athree-year performance period as the market condition has been met and have a term ofseven years thereafter.
NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
The Company has commitments under certain firm contractual arrangements (“firm commitments”) to make future payments. These firm commitments secure the future rights to various assets and services to be used in the normal course of operations. The total firm commitments and future debt payments as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025 were approximately $34 billion and $35 billion, respectively. The decrease from June 30, 2025 was primarily due to sports programming rights payments.
Legal and Other Contingencies
The Company establishes an accrued liability for legal claims and indemnification claims when the Company determines that a loss is both probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, accruals are adjusted from time to time, as appropriate, in light of additional information. The amount of any loss ultimately incurred in relation to matters for which an accrual has been established may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued for such matters. Any fees, expenses, fines, penalties, judgments or settlements which might be incurred by the Company in connection with the various proceedings could affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. For the contingencies disclosed below for which there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred, other than the accrual provided, the Company was unable to estimate the amount of loss or range of loss.
FOX News
The Company’s FOX News business and certain of its current and former employees have been subject to allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination on the basis of sex and race. The Company has resolved many of these claims and is contesting other claims in litigation. The Company has also received regulatory and investigative inquiries relating to these matters. To date, none of the amounts paid in settlements or reserved for pending or future claims is material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company. The amount of additional liability, if any, that may result from these or related matters cannot be estimated at this time. However, the Company does not currently anticipate that the ultimate resolution of any such pending matters will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
U.K. Newspaper Matters Indemnity
In connection with the separation of Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. (“21CF”) and News Corporation in June 2013 (the “21CF News Corporation Separation”), 21CF agreed to indemnify News Corporation, on an after-tax basis, for payments made after the 21CF News Corporation Separation arising out of civil claims and investigations relating to phone hacking, illegal data access and inappropriate payments to public officials that occurred at subsidiaries of News Corporation before the 21CF News Corporation Separation, as well as legal and professional fees and expenses paid in connection with the related criminal matters, other than fees, expenses and costs relating to employees who are not (i) directors, officers or certain designated employees or (ii) with respect to civil matters, co-defendants with News Corporation (the “U.K. Newspaper Matters Indemnity”). In accordance with the separation agreement entered into connection with the separation of 21CF and the Company in 2019 and 21CF becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company (“Disney”) (the “Transaction”), the Company assumed certain costs and liabilities related to the U.K. Newspaper Matters Indemnity. The liability recorded in the Balance Sheets related to the indemnity was approximately $30 million as of June 30, 2025 and approximately $25 million as of December 31, 2025.
Defamation and Disparagement Claims
From time to time, the Company and its news businesses, including FOX News Media and the FOX Television Stations, and their employees are subject to lawsuits alleging defamation or disparagement. This includes the lawsuit filed by Smartmatic USA Corp. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Smartmatic”) in February 2021 seeking $2.7 billion in damages.
The Company continues to believe the Smartmatic and other pending lawsuits alleging defamation or disparagement are without merit and intends to defend against them vigorously, including through any appeals. The parties argued summary judgment motions in the Smartmatic case on December 2, 2025. At this time, no trial date has been set by the court in the Smartmatic lawsuit and a trial is not expected to commence until later in 2026 at the earliest. The Company is unable to predict the final outcome of these matters and has determined that a loss in the Smartmatic case is neither probable nor reasonably estimable. There can be no assurance that the ultimate resolution of these pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In 2023, stockholders of the Company filed derivative lawsuits in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Chancery Court”) against certain directors and officers of the Company, naming the Company as a nominal defendant. The Chancery Court consolidated the lawsuits into one matter captioned In re Fox Corporation Deriv. Litig., C.A. No. 2023-0418 (Del.Ch.). On April 26, 2024, the lead plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that alleges that certain directors and officers, as applicable, breached their fiduciary duties by allowing the Company’s news channel to air allegations regarding election fraud in connection with the 2020 U.S. Presidential election, which resulted in significant defamation litigation. The amended complaint seeks orders awarding damages in favor of the Company; directing the Company to reform and improve its policies and procedures; and awarding the plaintiffs attorneys' fees and costs. On December 27, 2024, the Chancery Court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On February 18, 2025, the Chancellor of the Chancery Court, on the Chancellor’s own motion, reassigned the consolidated lawsuit to a different Vice Chancellor. On April 28, 2025, the Chancery Court granted the defendants’ motion for leave to move for summary judgment on an issue relating to director independence and limited discovery on this issue is ongoing. The Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against these claims.
Tax Contingencies
The Company’s operations are subject to tax primarily in various domestic jurisdictions and as a matter of course, the Company is regularly audited by federal and state tax authorities. The Company believes it has appropriately accrued for the expected outcome of all pending tax matters and does not currently anticipate that the ultimate resolution of pending tax matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, future results of operations or liquidity. In connection with the Transaction, each member of the 21CF consolidated group, which includes 21CF, the Company (prior to the Transaction) and 21CF’s other subsidiaries, is jointly and severally liable for the U.S. federal income and, in certain jurisdictions, state tax liabilities of each other member of the consolidated group. Consequently, the Company could be liable in the event any such liability is incurred, and not discharged, by any other member of the 21CF consolidated group. The tax matters agreement entered into in connection with the Transaction requires 21CF and/or Disney to indemnify the Company for any such liability. Disputes or assessments could arise during current or future audits by the IRS in amounts that the Company cannot quantify.
NOTE 9. PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Company participates in and/or sponsors various pension, savings and postretirement benefit plans. Pension plans and postretirement benefit plans are closed to new participants with the exception of a small group covered by collective bargaining agreements. The net periodic benefit cost was $9 million and $8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $17 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
NOTE 10. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company is a news, sports and entertainment company, which manages and reports its businesses infour operating segments: Cable Network Programming, Television, Credible and the FOX Studio Lot with the followingtwo reportable segments:
Cable Network Programming, which produces and licenses news and sports content distributed through traditional cable television systems, direct broadcast satellite operators and telecommunication companies (“traditional MVPDs”), virtual multi-channel video programming distributors (“virtual MVPDs”) and other digital platforms, primarily in the U.S.
Television, which produces, acquires, markets and distributes programming through the FOX broadcast network, advertising supported video-on-demand service Tubi,29 full power broadcast television stations, including 11 duopolies, and other digital platforms, primarily in the U.S. Eighteen of the broadcast television stations are affiliated with the FOX Network and 11 are affiliated with MyNetworkTV. The segment also includes various production companies that produce content for the Company and third parties.
The Credible and the FOX Studio Lot operating segments do not meet the criteria under GAAP to be separately reported as a reportable segment or aggregated with other operating segments, and as such are presented as part of Corporate and Other, which is not a reportable segment. Corporate and Other principally consists of FOX One, the Company’s direct-to-consumer subscription streaming service launched in August 2025, Credible, the FOX Studio Lot and corporate overhead costs. Credible is a U.S. consumer finance marketplace. The FOX Studio Lot, located in Los Angeles, California, provides television and film production services along with office space, studio operation services and includes all operations of the facility.
The Company’s operating segments have been determined in accordance with the Company’s internal management structure, which is organized based on operating activities. The Company evaluates performance based upon several factors, of which the primary financial measure is Segment EBITDA (defined below). Due to the integrated nature of these operating segments, estimates and judgments are made in allocating certain assets, revenues and expenses. Intersegment transactions principally relate to the sublicensing of sports content, direct-to-consumer streaming services and rental of studio and administrative space, which are recorded consistently with the recognition of transactions with third parties and are eliminated in consolidation.
Segment EBITDA is defined as Revenues less Operating expenses and Selling, general and administrative expenses. Segment 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 Segment EBITDA. Prior periods were not restated as the impact of the change is immaterial to the calculation. Management believes that Segment EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company’s operating segments because it is the primary measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, to monitor actual versus budget and prior fiscal year financial results, forecast future periods and perform competitive analyses to evaluate performance and allocate resources.
We use the term "MVPDs" to refer collectively to traditional MVPDs and virtual MVPDs.
