  • News Corp Q4 CY2025 Revenue Beats Estimates with 5.5% Growth
    February 5, 2026, 4:53 PM EST. News Corp (NASDAQ:NWSA) posted Q4 CY2025 revenue of $2.36 billion, surpassing analyst estimates by 3%, reflecting a 5.5% year-on-year increase. The company's GAAP earnings per share (EPS) matched expectations at $0.34. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $517 million, beating forecasts by 3.6%, although the operating margin fell to 10.2% from 16.3% last year. Free cash flow margin also declined to 5.6%. Despite short-term gains, News Corp's longer-term sales have been largely flat over five years, signaling challenges in sustaining growth. Its key segments-Dow Jones, News Media, and Book Publishing-show mixed performance with Dow Jones leading growth at 6.2% annually. Analysts anticipate a modest 3% revenue increase over the next year, below sector averages, indicating tepid outlook amid industry pressures.
