21st Century Fox is paying $725 million to the society for the deal, meaning the non-profit will be sitting on an endowment of almost $1 billion once the transaction is completed.
In return, the National Geographic Society will hand over the bulk of its assets to a new joint-venture company, National Geographic Partners, that will be 73% owned by 21st Century Fox. Those assets, according to a statement, include National Geographic’s TV channels, as well as “National Geographic magazines; National Geographic Studios; related digital and social media platforms; books; maps; children’s media; and ancillary activities, including travel, location-based entertainment, archival sales, catalog, licensing and ecommerce businesses.”
