--- title: "News Corp: Competitors" description: "News Corp compared with companies that share its SEC industry classification: revenue, growth and margins from SEC filings, and how the peer group is chosen." canonical: https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/news-corp/competitors/ source: "Swoopr Investment: https://www.getswoopr.com" --- # News Corp: Competitors & Industry Structure ## Direct Answer SEC EDGAR classifies News Corp under SIC code 2711 (Newspapers: Publishing or Publishing & Printing). Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 4 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, News Corp ranks 1 of 5. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes. ## How Does News Corp Compare With Its Peers? | Company | Revenue (latest FY) | Revenue growth | Operating margin | Net margin | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **News Corp (NWSA)** | $8.5 billion FY2025 | 2.4% | n/a | 15.9% | | [New York Times Company (The) (NYT)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/new-york-times-company-the/) | $2.8 billion FY2025 | 9.2% | 15.3% | 12.2% | | [USA TODAY Co. Inc. (TDAY)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/usa-today-co-inc/) | $2.3 billion FY2025 | -8.3% | n/a | 0.1% | | [Lee Enterprises Incorporated (LEE)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/lee-enterprises-incorporated/) | $562 million FY2025 | -8.0% | -0.8% | -6.7% | | [Daily Journal Corp. (S.C.) (DJCO)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/daily-journal-corp-s-c/) | $88 million FY2025 | 25.4% | 10.9% | 127.9% | Revenue growth compares each company's latest fiscal year with the one before. Fiscal years do not always end on the same date, so treat close comparisons with care. ## How Does News Corp Rank Among All SEC Filers in Its Industry Code? 5 companies with annual reports in Swoopr's SEC dataset share SIC code 2711 (Newspapers: Publishing or Publishing & Printing), a wider group than the S&P 500 Equal Weight companies above. Ranks run from 1 (highest) and use each company's latest fiscal year, in U.S. dollars. | Measure | News Corp | Median of filers | Rank | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Revenue | $8.5 billion | $2.3 billion | 1 of 5 | | Revenue growth | 2.4% | 2.4% | 3 of 5 | | Net margin | 15.9% | 12.2% | 2 of 5 | A SIC code reflects the filer's main business as the SEC records it, so the group mixes companies of very different size; the median is a better guide than the average, and a rank near the top by revenue says nothing about quality. ## Where These Numbers Come From Every figure on this page is a value News Corp reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0001564708-26-000175 for fiscal year 2025). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 7, 2026; a later amendment or a new annual report can change them, and the filing itself always takes precedence over this summary. Each fiscal year is labeled by the calendar year in which it ended, so a company that names the same period differently in its own filings (many retailers whose year ends in January) may use another label. A year is left out of the table when the SEC data set holds no value for it. A figure shown as "Not reported" means the company did not file a value under the standard tag Swoopr reads, not that the amount was zero. This page is educational and describes reported history only; it is not a forecast or a recommendation. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Who are News Corp's competitors? Companies sharing News Corp's SEC classification (SIC code 2711 (Newspapers: Publishing or Publishing & Printing)) include New York Times Company (The) (NYT), USA TODAY Co. Inc. (TDAY), Lee Enterprises Incorporated (LEE), Daily Journal Corp. (S.C.) (DJCO). Its 10-K names the competitors it considers most relevant. ### How does News Corp compare with its peers on margins? A margin comparison needs reported operating income for News Corp and its peers; where either is missing, Swoopr leaves the comparison out. ### How are these peers chosen? By the SEC Standard Industrial Classification code each company files under, within Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight company set, falling back to the two-digit major group when fewer than two companies share the exact code. Classification codes are broad, so read the peer list as a screen, not a verdict. ### How does News Corp rank among all companies in its SEC industry? Among 5 SEC filers under SIC code 2711, News Corp ranks 1 by latest revenue. ## References - [SEC EDGAR: NEWS CORP Form 10-K filed August 7, 2026](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1564708/000156470826000175/nws-20260630.htm) - [SEC EDGAR: NEWS CORP annual and quarterly filings](https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?action=getcompany&CIK=1564708&type=10-K) - [SEC: EDGAR application programming interfaces (XBRL frames and submissions data)](https://www.sec.gov/search-filings/edgar-application-programming-interfaces) ## Related Pages - [News Corp company dossier](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/news-corp/) - [News Corp financial metrics](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/news-corp/metrics/) - [News Corp financial risk indicators](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/news-corp/risks/) - [News Corp peer comparison](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/news-corp/competitors/) - [News Corp business model and revenue mix](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/news-corp/business-model/) - [Fundamental analysis guides](https://www.getswoopr.com/learn/fundamental-analysis/) **[Swoopr Editorial Team](https://www.getswoopr.com/authors/swoopr-editorial-team/)** Swoopr's editorial team produces independent investment education content reviewed for accuracy and clarity.
