Werte in diesem Artikel
Superbowl LIX has a chance to be the most-watched NFL championship of all time and one stock that will benefit immensely is Fox Corporation FOXA.As the primary broadcaster of this year’s Superbowl, Fox could be on the cusp of record viewership this Sunday as the Kansas City Chiefs bid for the first "three-peat" in NFL history. On the other side is a very formidable and familiar opponent in the Philadelphia Eagles, a rematch from their Superbowl duel in 2023. Ironically, their previous meeting was the last time Fox had Superbowl rights and generated $600 million in sales. This game was the third highest in all-time Superbowl viewership, and the Chiefs title win last year hit the record with over 120 million people watching.With a potential Chiefs versus Eagles rematch building momentum, Fox had already sold out all of its advertising slots months in advance, and some brands are rumored to have paid up to a record $7 million for a 30-second commercial.Image Source: Sporting News Fox Crushed Q2 Expectations Recently reporting results for its fiscal second quarter on Tuesday, Fox’s EBITDA more than doubled year over year to a Q2 record of $781 million. This was driven by 20% revenue growth with Q2 sales at $5.07 billion compared to $4.23 billion a year ago. The top-line figure comfortably surpassed Q2 sales estimates of $4.88 billion.Adjusted net income came in at $442 million or $0.96 per share, which nearly tripled from the comparative quarter and crushed the Zacks EPS Consensus of $0.65 by 47%.

Carrying the momentum has been strong NFL, college football, and major league baseball postseason viewership along with the continued audience expansion at Tubi.Furthermore, Fox expects its revenue growth to continue this year thanks to strong performance in affiliate fees, advertising, and digital initiatives. Based on Zacks estimates, Fox’s total sales are now projected to spike 12% in fiscal 2025 to $15.65 billion versus $13.98 billion last year. Plus, annual earnings are expected to soar 24% to $4.26 per share from EPS of $3.43 in 2024.Regarding its digital initiatives, Fox plans to launch a new subscription streaming service by the end of 2025. The streaming service will focus on sports and news content, including live sports and Fox TV shows which will help target an audience outside of traditional cable viewers and assist with competing against Disney’s DIS ESPN+ and Paramount Global (PARA), the parent company of CBS.
