Guidance and outlook
Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 2, 2026
- 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 total Platform revenue and total Platform gross profit over time.
- While we intend to remain vigilant in monitoring the impacts of these circumstances on our business and adapt accordingly, the effects of these macroeconomic factors on our business, results of operations, and financial condition remain largely uncertain.
- The key performance metrics (“KPMs”) 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.
- This feature has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on our financial performance.
- Given our current and anticipated future earnings, we believe that there is a reasonable possibility that the valuation allowance against these net deferred tax assets may be reversed within the next twelve months.
- Though we do not expect to incur expenses for facilities and building related costs at the same level as we have in the last few fiscal years, we will continue to incur expenses on the maintenance of our facilities and purchases of computer systems, and other property and equipment, in order to support future growth in our business.
- If we raise additional funds by issuing equity, the ownership of our existing stockholders will be diluted.
