NEWS CORP 8-K

What Happened
News Corporation (NWSA) filed an 8‑K on June 17, 2026, to report information it provided to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) about its ongoing stock repurchase program. The company reiterated that it is authorized to buy up to $1 billion in the aggregate of its Class A and Class B common stock and disclosed transaction information to the ASX on a daily basis as required.

Key Details

• Authorized repurchase amount: up to $1.0 billion of Class A and Class B common stock.
• ASX requirement: the Company must provide daily disclosure of any transactions under the repurchase program.
• Exhibits: copies of the information provided to the ASX on the noted dates are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2.
• Filing date and signature: Form 8‑K dated June 17, 2026, signed by Michael L. Bunder, Senior VP, Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary.

Why It Matters
This filing is a routine disclosure rather than an announcement of a change to the program. Repurchases can reduce share count and potentially support the stock price when executed. The daily ASX disclosures increase transparency about any buybacks. Investors should note the company’s forward‑looking caution that actual repurchases depend on market conditions and other factors and that the company is not obligated to update forward‑looking statements except as required by law.
