| Acquisitions, Disposals and Other Transactions | ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSALS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS The Company’s acquisitions support the Company’s strategy to strengthen its core brands, grow its digital businesses and selectively enhance production capabilities for its digital and linear platforms. During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 the Company made no acquisitions. Roku Transaction On June 14, 2026, the Company and Roku, Inc. (“Roku”) entered into a definitive agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) under which the Company has agreed to acquire Roku for a combination of cash and FOX Class A Common Stock (the “Roku Transaction” or the “Merger”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, FOX will pay $96.00 in cash and 0.9693 shares of FOX Class A Common Stock for each share of Roku Class A Common Stock and Roku Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. The exchange ratio and per share cash amount are subject to adjustment as set forth in the Merger Agreement in certain circumstances relating to Roku stockholders who properly exercise appraisal rights in accordance with Delaware law. Following the completion of the Merger, Roku will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of FOX. Each of the Boards of Directors of FOX and Roku unanimously approved the Roku Transaction, and in October 2026 FOX and Roku received the requisite stockholder approvals for the transaction. The Roku Transaction remains subject to clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. The Merger Agreement contains customary termination rights and provides that each party will be required to pay the other party a termination fee of approximately $866 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances. In addition, FOX will be required to pay Roku a termination fee of approximately $1.2 billion if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances related to the failure to obtain certain regulatory approvals or upon the entry of a permanent restraint under certain antitrust laws or investment screening laws. The Company expects to fund the cash portion of the Merger consideration with a combination of debt and cash on hand. In connection with the Merger Agreement, in June 2026, the Company entered into a commitment letter under which the lenders provided $12.0 billion of commitments ($11.0 billion of which is available as of September 30, 2026) to provide senior unsecured bridge loans (the “Bridge Facility”) and a term loan credit agreement under which the lenders committed to provide a $1.0 billion senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) (See Note 5—Borrowings). Other Transactions In July 2025, the Company acquired a noncontrolling minority interest in a sports and entertainment company, which was recorded as an equity method investment, initially at fair value.
