# Research Alert: CFRA Reiterates Buy Opinion On Shares Of News Corp

11:55 AM EDT, 05/11/2026 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We raise our 12-month target price by $2 to $31, 26x our FY 27 (Jun.) EPS estimate (unchanged multiple). We raise our FY 26 EPS estimate to $1.03 from $0.99 and FY 27's to $1.19 from $1.13. Following FQ3 (Mar-Q) results, we are reiterating our Buy opinion. We are encouraged by results at Dow Jones, where revenue growth is accelerating in its Risk & Compliance (+19% Y/Y) and Energy (+12% Y/Y) products. The Dow Jones segment also saw Wall Street Journal subscriptions reach 4.7M (+8% Y/Y) despite higher subscription prices, demonstrating pricing power. The company's Digital Real Estate Services grew revenue (+8% Y/Y ex-FX) despite new and existing home sales remaining in a slump. Adjusted EBITDA margins have expanded for eight consecutive quarters post-Foxtel spin-off, fueling improved free cash flow and accelerated buybacks. At 26x our FY 27 estimate vs. a 29x five-year average, shares trade at a discount with potential for re-rating as operational momentum continues.
