Exhibit 99.1
Fellow Shareholders,April 25, 2024
We delivered solid results in Q1, growing Streaming Households (previously “Active Accounts”)1 14% YoY, Streaming Hours 23% YoY, and Platform Revenue 19% YoY. Roku remains the #1 selling TV OS in the U.S. and Mexico, and we continue to expand our retail distribution. The Roku Channel’s ongoing growth made it the #3 app on our platform by both reach and engagement. This strong performance demonstrates the impact of surfacing relevant content throughout our platform. We also achieved positive Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow for the third consecutive quarter, demonstrating our ongoing focus on operational efficiencies.

1 ”Streaming Households” are the number of distinct user accounts that have streamed content on our platform within the last 30 days of the period. Prior to this shareholder letter, we referred to “Streaming Households” as “Active Accounts.” While we have changed this term to better reflect the nature of our business, we calculate “Streaming Households” using the same methodology that we used to calculate “Active Accounts,” and this change in terminology does not change any metrics we have reported in prior periods.

Market-Leading Scale
In Q1, Roku grew Streaming Households to 81.6 million globally. Sequential net adds of 1.6 million were in line with Q1 2023 and driven by both TVs and streaming players. Roku continued to benefit from consumers’ focus on value. The Roku operating system (OS) was again the #1 selling TV OS in the U.S. and Mexico, representing approximately 40% of TVs sold in each country in Q12.
In January, we announced the Roku Pro Series, expanding our award-winning lineup of Roku-branded TVs (designed, made, and sold by Roku). Our new higher-performing TVs come with advanced features, including: Roku Smart Picture Max, which uses AI to automatically optimize brightness and colors and select the best picture mode for the viewer; Roku Soundstage Audio, which projects sound out and around the viewer through new side-firing speakers; Backdrops, which displays artwork or photos and transforms the TV into a work of art; and a new Voice Remote Pro with touch-activated backlit buttons. The Roku Pro Series is now available in 55”, 65”, and 75” models at Best Buy in store and online, Amazon.com, and Walmart.com. These innovative new features and more are also available in our latest software update to all supported Roku streaming devices in the U.S.

Driving Engagement 
Globally, our users streamed 30.8 billion hours in Q1. Streaming Hours grew 23% YoY as viewers continue to shift to TV streaming. During the same period, hours on traditional TV in the U.S. fell 13% YoY (Nielsen). We also grew engagement per household globally, with Streaming Hours per Streaming Household per day of 4.2 hours in Q1 2024, up from 3.9 hours in Q1 2023.

Viewer Experience
As the programmer of our Home Screen, we continue to introduce innovative ways for our viewers to find great entertainment, while also growing monetization opportunities.
Sports remains one of the most important content categories for audiences and advertisers, and Roku is well positioned to benefit from its shift to streaming. To make Super Bowl LVIII easily accessible for viewers, we promoted it in the NFL Zone and throughout our platform. The NFL Zone (within the Roku Sports experience) offers football fans a centralized location to find live and upcoming games, weekly previews, and League highlights. Super Bowl LVIII was also promoted through Roku City, Roku-sold sponsorships, and Roku Pay subscription sign-ups. According to Nielsen, Super Bowl LVIII attracted the largest U.S. TV audience on record, and more than a fifth of all TV viewers streamed on the Roku platform (based on internal Roku data)3.

In April we launched the NBA Zone, a one-stop destination for NBA games, highlights, documentaries, original series, league news, and more. The NBA Zone includes the NBA App, and NBA League Pass, the NBA’s premium live out-of-market game subscription service, which is available to purchase with Roku Pay. Roku has also partnered with the NBA to launch the first-ever NBA FAST channel exclusively on The Roku Channel. The NBA FAST channel features classic games, highlights, recaps, documentaries, original series, studio shows, interviews, and more. This new channel expands our current lineup of more than 35 sports-focused FAST channels.

On our Home Screen, we surface content to our viewers at the start of their streaming journey. Recent Home Screen experiences include our New Year’s Eve hub in late December, the Emmys Collection in January, the Valentine’s Day Zone in February, and the Oscars Collection in March. With insights and learnings from these destinations, we are creating more Home Screen experiences that we can scale for the benefit of viewers and marketers — particularly those who want to sponsor tentpole content and events.
We also help viewers find great entertainment through recommendations integrated across the Roku platform. For example, at the top of our Home Screen grid, we recently added a new personalized content row powered by AI. We also offer “You May Also Like” suggestions on content details pages. Unlike suggestions from streaming services, which are restricted to their libraries, Roku’s recommendations include content from streaming apps across our platform. Our ongoing enhancements to our Home Screen are helping to drive engagement, with Streaming Hours originating from the Home Screen Menu (left-hand navigation) more than doubling YoY in Q1. This growing engagement creates more monetization opportunities.

Personalized content row to help guide viewers to great entertainment
The Roku Channel
We continue to drive strong growth of The Roku Channel, which became the #3 app on our platform in Q1 by both reach and engagement, with Streaming Hours up 66% YoY.
Providing a broad array of content for our viewers, The Roku Channel offers AVOD, Live TV (FAST4), and Premium Subscriptions through viewing experiences across our platform. We use our genre-specific viewer experiences, like Sports, to elevate related programming. As part of Super Bowl LVIII, for example, we once again brought Roku Original “The Rich Eisen Show” to audiences live, selling out sponsorships to brands including Subway and BMW of North America. BMW’s campaign also included creative on our Home Screen, interactive video overlays promoting BMW’s website, and content in support of BMW’s Big Game spot.

Short-form content is another popular category with viewers. Recently, we launched short-form video clips from NBCUniversal on The Roku Channel. Highlights from NBC Sports and late-night programming, such as “Saturday Night Live” and “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” appear throughout our platform shortly after they air live. This generates additional reach and engagement, which we are able to monetize.

Growing Monetization
We generate Platform revenue primarily from the sale of advertising (including direct and programmatic video advertising, M&E promotional spending, sponsorships, and related ad products and services), as well as streaming services distribution (including subscription and transactional revenue, the sale of Premium Subscriptions, and the sale of branded app buttons on remote controls).
Platform revenue was $755 million in Q1, up 19% YoY, reflecting contributions from streaming services distribution and advertising activities. In Q1, Platform Gross Margin was 52%, flat YoY. ARPU was $40.65 in Q1 (on a trailing 12-month basis), relatively flat YoY. This reflects an increasing share of Streaming Households in international markets where we are currently focused on growing scale and engagement.
Streaming Services Distribution Activities
With more than 81 million Streaming Households globally and the #1 TV streaming platform by hours streamed in the U.S.5, Roku helps streaming services acquire, engage, and retain subscribers. In Q1, streaming services distribution activities grew faster than Platform revenue overall, benefiting in part from price increases for subscription-based apps on our platform. Live sports are still accelerating the shift of viewers from traditional TV to streaming and were a driver for SVOD6 sign-ups on our platform in Q1. For this year’s Super Bowl, we drove sign-ups for Paramount+ through both a Premium Subscription in The Roku Channel and the Paramount+ DTC app. Roku Pay, our payments and billing service, makes it easy for both our viewers and content partners to transact subscriptions. We are focused on the large opportunity to grow the share of subscriptions on our platform that are billed through Roku Pay.

Advertising Activities
The YoY growth of video advertising across the Roku platform outperformed both the overall ad market and the traditional linear TV ad market in the U.S. The Consumer Packaged Goods, Retail, and Auto verticals grew, while Insurance remained challenged.

Home Screen and video ads on the Roku platform reached U.S. households with nearly 120 million people on a daily basis in Q1. Our broad array of ad products connects advertisers with viewers throughout the streaming journey, from the Home Screen to Roku Originals to Roku City, and more. In Q1, we launched a new, virtual "showroom" that allows viewers to explore product options on the Roku platform. Advertisers can drive viewers to the showroom via ads on our Home Screen. These products help advertisers achieve results from top-of-funnel broad reach awareness to bottom-of-funnel results.
Additionally, we are making it easier for advertisers to execute campaigns programmatically by expanding and deepening our relationships with third-party platforms, including retail media networks, DSPs (demand side platforms), and other strategic partners. In Q1, we continued to grow programmatic ad spend as a percentage of total video ad spend on the Roku platform. We are focused on growing both the number of advertisers we serve and the size of advertising budget, while building partnerships that expand the targeting, attribution, and measurement capabilities we offer.

Outlook
We are pleased with our Q1 results, particularly the third consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. We believe this demonstrates our operating discipline and leverage. Looking ahead, we face difficult year-over-year growth rate comparisons within streaming service distribution activities. This headwind is due to past price increases and a higher mix shift toward ad-supported offerings. In Q2, we estimate Total net revenue of $935 million, Total gross profit of $410 million, and Adjusted EBITDA of $30 million. Looking into the second half of the year, we anticipate normal seasonal spend in Sales & Marketing for Devices, which will cause Adjusted EBITDA to slightly moderate relative to the first half of the year.
We remain confident in our ability to accelerate the growth of Platform revenue and continue to grow Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow in 2025 and beyond. We are focused on expanding monetization of the Roku Home Screen, bolstering programmatic ad capabilities, and growing Roku-billed subscriptions. Advertisers seeking to maximize ROI need ad solutions with significant reach and innovative ad technology. Roku has a direct relationship with more than 81 million Streaming Households, and we are deepening relationships with third-party platforms including DSPs, retail media networks, and measurement partners. Our business remains well positioned to capture the billions of dollars in traditional TV ad budgets that will shift to streaming.
Thank you for your support, and Happy Streaming™!

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), this shareholder letter includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures include Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow (FCF). In order for our investors to be better able to compare our current results with those of previous periods, we have included a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the tables at the end of this letter. The Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation excludes other income (expense), net, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, restructuring charges, and income tax (benefit)/expense from net income (loss), and the FCF reconciliation excludes purchases of property and equipment and effects of exchange rates on cash from the cash flows from operating activities, in each case where applicable. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful as a supplement in evaluating our ongoing operational performance and enhancing an overall understanding of our past financial performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our GAAP financial information, such as GAAP net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.
