Profile

ROKU 10-K Item 1 · Feb 13, 2026

Roku is a leading TV streaming platform that generates revenue through digital advertising, streaming service distribution, and the sale of streaming devices and related products. The company operates two segments: Platform, which monetizes user engagement through advertising and content partnerships, and Devices, which sells streaming players, Roku-made TVs, and related hardware. Roku's strategy prioritizes growing Platform revenue and profitability by expanding its installed base of Streaming Households.

Read filing description ↓

Our two reportable segments are the Platform segment and the Devices segment. Platform revenue is generated from the sale of digital advertising (including direct and programmatic video advertising, ads integrated into our user interface ('UI'), and related services) and streaming services distribution (including subscription and transaction revenue shares, the sale of Premium Subscriptions, the sale of owned and operated subscription services, and the sale of branded app buttons on remote controls). Devices revenue is generated from the sale of streaming players, Roku-made TVs, smart home products and services, audio products, and related accessories. We expect to continue to manage the average selling prices of Roku streaming devices in an effort to sell more devices, which we believe will increase our Streaming Households. We expect that this trade off from Devices gross profit or loss to grow Streaming Households should result in increased Platform revenue and Platform gross profit over time. Since our IPO in 2017, the streaming TV industry has evolved meaningfully, with Americans now spending significantly more TV time streaming than watching traditional TV. Our business has also grown and evolved, and we are now primarily focused on growing Platform revenue and profitability. The key performance metrics we use to evaluate our business, measure our performance, develop financial forecasts and make strategic decisions are Streaming Hours, Platform revenue, Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ('Adjusted EBITDA'), and Free Cash Flow.
