NEWS CORP (NWSA) closed fiscal year 2026 with total debt of 1.99 B USD and a net cash position of 106 M USD. Cash and short-term investments therefore exceed total financial debt, so leverage ratios against EBITDA are not meaningful for this year. The highest net debt to EBITDA reading over the period was 1.00 times, in 2023. The series covers 15 fiscal years, from 2012 to 2026. All figures are stated in USD and come from the statements as reported to the SEC (EDGAR), with no restatements or adjustments of our own. Debt balances are taken at the fiscal year-end date; net debt subtracts cash and short-term investments from total financial debt.
