Fox profits drop but cable networks and Tubi show growth

Fox Corporation experienced a decline in overall profits for the second quarter, though gains in cable networks and the Tubi platform provided some offset. Digital advertising revenue from the ad-supported video-on-demand service Tubi helped counterbalance lower political advertising income. The company reported these results on February 4, 2026.

Fox Corporation announced its second-quarter financial results, revealing a drop in profits despite positive performances from its cable networks and the Tubi streaming platform. The ad-supported video-on-demand (AVOD) service Tubi saw gains in digital advertising, which helped mitigate the impact of reduced political advertising revenue. This mixed outcome highlights ongoing shifts in the media landscape, where traditional revenue streams face challenges while digital platforms continue to expand.

The report underscores Tubi's role in driving growth amid broader profitability pressures at Fox. Cable networks also contributed to the positive aspects of the quarter, maintaining steady performance in a competitive environment. These developments reflect the company's efforts to diversify beyond declining areas like political ads, which typically fluctuate with election cycles.

Overall, the results indicate resilience in select segments, even as Fox navigates economic uncertainties in the entertainment industry.
