Cavco to report results on October 29, News Corp on November 4
Key Facts
Cavco will report its fiscal second-quarter results after the market closes on October 29, 2026, while News Corp will release its fiscal first-quarter results on November 4, 2026, according to announcements on the companies' websites. Cavco said on its investor relations website that the upcoming results cover the quarter ended September 26, 2026. News Corp, in its quarterly earnings announcement, scheduled the release and a discussion of its performance with management for Wednesday. Cavco's latest results follow a quarter in which revenue rose while diluted earnings per share fell from a year earlier. News Corp heads into its quarterly release after a fiscal year of growth in reported and adjusted revenue, alongside higher free cash flow, according to its annual earnings release.
Cavco's net revenue in its latest reported quarter was about $610 million, compared with $557 million a year earlier, according to the earnings release the company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The annual increase was $53 million, representing growth of 9.5% from the corresponding quarter. Home sales volume rose 4.4% year on year over the same period, according to the release. But the factory-built housing segment's gross profit margin fell to 20.8% from 22.6% a year earlier, despite sales growth. Diluted earnings per share were $5.43, compared with $6.42 in the corresponding quarter, as higher revenue coincided with a decline in this profitability measure. The company's order backlog stood at $298 million at the end of the latest reported quarter. Chief Executive Bill Boor said in comments on those results that prospective homebuyers faced a "challenging macroeconomic environment."
News Corp's revenue in its latest reported fiscal year was $9.03 billion, according to the company's annual earnings release. The group compared that figure with revenue of $8.45 billion in the previous year, marking an annual increase of 7%. It attributed the revenue growth to higher revenue from digital real estate services, Dow Jones and book publishing, alongside a positive impact from currency movements. On an adjusted basis, the company said in its release that "adjusted revenues increased 4%" during the latest reported fiscal year. Under News Corp's definition, this measure excludes the effects of currencies, acquisitions and divestitures, while reported revenue growth includes those effects.
On a quarterly basis, News Corp reported revenue of $2.34 billion in its latest reported fiscal quarter, according to its annual earnings release. Revenue in the corresponding period a year earlier was $2.11 billion, the comparison the company provided for that quarter's results. Quarterly revenue growth thus reached 11% year on year, exceeding the revenue growth rate for the full fiscal year. Commenting on the annual performance, Chief Executive Robert Thomson said "free cash flow rose significantly." Free cash flow reached $811 million in the latest reported fiscal year, an annual increase of 42%, according to figures Thomson cited in his comments on the results.

The webcast starts at 1:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time, according to the investor relations announcement for its fiscal second-quarter results.
