NEWS CORP 8-K

What Happened

• News Corporation (NWSA) filed an 8-K on February 27, 2026, attaching copies of information the company provided to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) about its stock repurchase program. The company is authorized to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of its Class A and Class B common stock and must provide daily ASX disclosure of any transactions under the program. The filing also includes standard forward‑looking statement disclosures and notes no obligation to update those statements except as required by law.

Key Details

• Authorized repurchase amount: up to $1.0 billion (aggregate for Class A and Class B common stock).
• ASX requirement: daily public disclosure of any transactions under the Repurchase Program.
• Filings attached: Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 are the copies of the ASX information provided on the dates noted in those exhibits.
• Filing date and signature: Form 8‑K filed February 27, 2026; signed by Michael L. Bunder, Senior VP, Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary.

Why It Matters

• Share repurchase authorizations can reduce outstanding share count if shares are bought, which may support earnings per share and shareholder value over time. Daily ASX disclosures increase transparency about any buybacks. The filing does not announce a specific repurchase amount executed on any date—only that the program exists, is subject to market and legal conditions, and that related communications were provided to the ASX and attached to this 8‑K.
