1: On June 28, 2013, the Company completed the Separation of its business creating two separate independent public companies: Twenty-First Century Fox, which holds the Company’s global media and entertainment companies, and News Corp, which holds the businesses comprising the Company’s historical newspapers, information services and integrated marketing services, book publishing, digital education and sports programming and pay-TV distribution in Australia. As of the Separation date, the Company does not own any equity interest in News Corp and News Corp is operating independently from the Company. In the quarter ended June 30, 2013, News Corp recorded impairment charges and restructuring charges of approximately $1.5 billion related to discontinued operations.
2: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests includes $93 million, $75 million and $24 million for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, relating to redeemable noncontrolling interests.
3: The Company’s investment in several of its affiliates exceeded its equity in the underlying net assets by approximately $2.6 billion and $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which represented the excess cost over the Company’s proportionate share of its investments’ underlying net assets.  This has been allocated between finite-lived intangible assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill.  The finite-lived intangible assets primarily represent MSO agreements, trade names and subscriber lists with a weighted average useful life as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 of 18 and 13 years, respectively. In accordance with ASC 350, the Company amortized $39 million and $14 million in fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively, related to amounts allocated to finite-lived intangible assets. Such amortization is reflected in Equity earnings of affiliates
