News Corporation CHESS Depositary Interest Class A represents beneficial ownership in Class A non-voting common shares of News Corp through the Australian CHESS settlement system. These depositary interests allow investors to access News Corp’s equity without directly holding the underlying U.S.-domiciled shares, with each CDI typically corresponding on a one-to-one basis to a Class A share. News Corp today operates as a diversified media and information services company headquartered in New York, United States. Its activities span news and information publishing, digital real estate services, subscription video and audio content, and book publishing across multiple geographies. Through well-known brands and platforms, the company distributes content via print, digital, and broadcast channels, serving consumers, advertisers, and business customers. The CDI structure enables local investors to trade an interest in News Corp while benefiting from CHESS-based electronic clearing and settlement, aligning corporate actions and economic rights with those of direct Class A shareholders, aside from voting differences.
