Fox Soars on World Cup Revenue | Los Angeles News

The 2026 FIFA World Cup delivered a massive financial boost to Fox, driving Q2 revenues to $4.12 billion — a 28% jump over last year and far exceeding Wall Street’s expectations. Advertising revenue surged 78%, fueled by the global spectacle, while 128 million U.S. viewers tuned in across Fox, FS1, and Tubi, with an average of 7.7 million per match — double the 2022 numbers. Fox closed its fiscal year strong with $17.13 billion in total revenue, despite a slight dip in net income due to investments in streaming services. Tubi, their ad-supported platform, saw 35% YoY growth and attracts 70% of users without cable, opening new ad opportunities. Fox One is also ahead of schedule with strong subscriber gains. Looking forward, Fox is monitoring its NFL deal but isn’t rushing to renegotiate — they’re ready to discuss options closer to the 2030 opt-out window, as live sports remain the ultimate viewer magnet.
