| Forward EPS estimate | $1.51 |
Over the last 90 days, what analysts expect NWS to earn is essentially unchanged. The estimate is derived from price and forward P/E captured at the same instant, so a moving share price does not move this number — only a changed forecast does.
A fiscal-year roll fell inside this window: the forward horizon moved on to the next financial year, which shifts the earnings figure without any analyst changing their view. That step is excluded, so the number above covers the rest of the window rather than all of it.

News Corporation (NWS): score, valuation & FAQ
News Corporation (NWS) is an Entertainment company that scores 50.2 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a middling reading. The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.
Its strongest graded signals are D/E (A-). On valuation, NWS sits about 31% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies free cash flow growing about 12% next year, slowing to 4% a year by year ten.
Is NWS a good stock to buy?
Bull Rankings scores NWS 50.2 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by D/E (A-). A score is a quantitative screen of News Corporation's fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.
Why does NWS score 50.2 on Bull Rankings?
The score leans on quality at 63.5 out of 100, with value the weakest pillar at 35.3 — the three combine geometrically, so a weak one cannot be papered over by a strong one. NWS earns its highest marks on D/E (A-). Each signal is graded against sector-aware thresholds rather than one absolute bar, so NWS is measured against Entertainment peers, not against the market as a whole.
Is NWS overvalued or undervalued?
Based on $32.01, NWS sits about 31% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies free cash flow growing about 12% next year, slowing to 4% a year by year ten. It trades at a 31.1x P/E (graded C+). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.
What are the main risks of investing in NWS?
Trailing P/E 31x sits well above the S&P median (~20x) — multiple compression is a real risk if revenue growth decelerates. ROE 7% is below the long-run sustainable threshold of ~10% — capital efficiency would need to improve for the equity base to compound at the market rate.
