Structured Capital Strategy Through Share Repurchase Program

As outlined in the filing, the repurchase program includes both classes of the company’s publicly traded stock—Class A (NASDAQ:NWSA) and Class B (NASDAQ:NWS). The program aligns with the company’s ongoing capital allocation framework and is supported by its operating cash reserves and overall financial position.

In line with disclosure standards, News Corp detailed recent activity from June submissions and noted that execution of these repurchases will remain contingent on market conditions, legal regulations, and availability of funds.

Forward-Looking Nature of Repurchase Disclosures

The filing also included statements regarding the flexibility embedded within the program. News Corp acknowledged that actual repurchase volumes may vary based on a range of influences, including prevailing share prices and shifts in broader market conditions. These disclosures are framed in accordance with corporate transparency requirements and do not constitute guarantees or binding commitments.

Regulatory Reporting Framework Maintains Market Clarity

By lodging consistent updates with the ASX, News Corp continues to adhere to its dual-listed compliance framework. The company has also reaffirmed that its quarterly and annual financial reports will contain supplemental information related to the buyback initiative. This ensures continuity in public disclosure, especially given its multinational shareholder base.
