News Corp buyback update shows $430M still available

$1B buyback — $570.4M of $1B authorization used; ~$429.6M remains

News Corp’s buyback update shows $785,000 of additional purchases and roughly $430 million still available under its existing $1 billion authorization.

News Corp is already in a capital-return phase around a business led by Dow Jones, digital real estate and book publishing. Its latest full-year results showed revenue up 7% and Total Segment EBITDA up 15%, so this filing is about distributing excess capital—not funding a new operating pivot.

Nov. 4, 2026Buyback authorizationRemaining
Shares repurchased (Class B) (Daily buy-back notification)23,784
Consideration paid (Daily buy-back notification)$784,940.97
Program value (Buy-back description)$1.0B
Cumulative purchases (Remaining authorization)$570.4M~$429.6M

This is a routine progress report, not a new capital-allocation decision. News Corp bought 23,784 Class B shares for $784,940.97 on November 4, while the existing program allows up to $1 billion of purchases. 〔0〕

The only incremental signal is continued execution against the authorization. Cumulative purchases have reached approximately $570.4 million, leaving roughly $429.6 million available by simple subtraction; the filing does not expand the program, change its terms, or introduce a new commitment. 〔1〕

Bottom line: News Corp is steadily returning capital, but this daily notice barely changes the existing story. It confirms ongoing buyback activity rather than delivering a new business or capital-allocation surprise.
