Buy

$65.50

75.32%

Further to the first half results, UBS notes the outperformance of Dow Jones and Move, as News Corp continues to execute on strategy. The broker is positive regarding digital growth drivers.

AI displacement concerns remain a key overhang, yet UBS highlights the extension of the Bloomberg partnership to incorporate AI licenses and achieve a range of enterprise deals within the Dow Jones segment.

The stock appears the best placed across the broker's media coverage to benefit from gradual content monetisation and AI developments. Buy rating reiterated. Target is raised to $65.50 from $64.40.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 30.70 cents and EPS of 167.33 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 30.70 cents and EPS of 204.18 cents.
