The Company reported total quarterly revenues of $5.18 billion, an increase of $104 million or 2% from the amount reported in the prior year quarter. Distribution revenues increased 4%, primarily driven by 5% growth at the Cable Network Programming segment. Advertising revenues increased 1%, primarily due to higher sports and news pricing, continued digital growth led by the Tubi AVOD service, and the impact of additional MLB postseason games, partially offset by lower political advertising revenues and lower ratings. Content and other revenues were essentially unchanged from the prior year quarter.
The Company reported quarterly net income of $247 million as compared to the $388 million reported in the prior year quarter. Net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders was $229 million ($0.52 per share) as compared to the $373 million ($0.81 per share) reported in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders1 was $360 million ($0.82 per share) as compared to the $442 million ($0.96 per share) reported in the prior year quarter.
Quarterly Adjusted EBITDA2 was $692 million as compared to $781 million reported in the prior year quarter as the revenue increase noted above was more than offset by higher expenses. The increase in expenses was primarily due to higher sports programming rights amortization and production costs, and higher digital marketing costs, partially offset by lower entertainment programming rights amortization and production costs.
Commenting on the results, Executive Chair and Chief Executive Officer Lachlan Murdoch said:
"FOX delivered robust results in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 with broad based contributions from across our portfolio, including notable strength in advertising, where despite strong political advertising revenues a year ago, we still grew total company advertising revenue. These results represent a continuation of the operating and financial momentum that we have delivered over the last several years and are a product of both a highly differentiated strategy and high quality execution that reflect the power of our leadership brands across news, sports, streaming and entertainment."
