News Corp Files 8‑K: Daily ASX Disclosures for $1B Share Repurchase Program

What Happened News Corporation (NWSA) filed an 8‑K on December 23, 2025, disclosing that, under its previously announced repurchase programs, it is authorized to buy up to $1 billion in the aggregate of its Class A and Class B common stock and that it provides daily transaction disclosures to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). The filing includes copies of the information provided to the ASX on the dates shown (Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2) and reiterates the company’s forward‑looking statements and related disclaimers.

Key Details

  • Authorized repurchase amount: up to $1.0 billion aggregate of Class A and Class B common stock.
  • ASX requirement: the company must disclose any transactions under the repurchase programs to the ASX on a daily basis.
  • Filing date and signature: Form 8‑K filed December 23, 2025; signed by Michael L. Bunder, Senior VP, Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary.
  • Disclosure materials: Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 are the copies of the information provided to the ASX; the filing reiterates standard forward‑looking statement cautions and that repurchases depend on market and legal conditions.

Why It Matters This notice keeps investors informed that News Corp has an active buyback authorization (up to $1 billion) and is reporting any repurchase activity daily to the ASX. Share repurchases can affect shares outstanding and potentially support per‑share metrics, but actual buybacks depend on market prices, liquidity, legal requirements and management decisions. The filing does not commit to specific future purchases and contains the company’s usual forward‑looking disclaimers.
