Fellow Shareholders, February 12, 2026

We delivered excellent results in 2025, driven by consistent execution and the differentiation of our leading TV streaming platform. By expanding our Platform monetization over the last two years, we’ve unlocked new growth engines and achieved record-breaking financial performance. In 2025, we achieved positive net income, expanded Adjusted EBITDA margin by 255 basis points, and reported record Free Cash Flow (TTM), all while continuing to invest in our platform for long term growth. We repurchased a total of $150 million of shares under our $400 million stock repurchase program, reinforcing our commitment to growing Free Cash Flow per share. Looking ahead to 2026 and beyond, we are confident in our ability to sustain double-digit Platform revenue growth while continuing to expand both operating and net income margins.

Roku Q4 and Full Year 2025 Shareholder Letter

Platform

Our Platform segment delivered strong performance in 2025. In Q4, we grew Platform revenue 18% YoY to $1.224 billion, with gross margin of 52.8%. For the full year, we grew Platform revenue 18% YoY to $4.145 billion, driven by continued strength in video advertising and streaming services distribution activities, with gross margin of 52.0%.

The Roku Experience, anchored by our Home Screen, encompasses the full suite of features designed to engage viewers and simplify content discovery through the power of AI and our first-party data. This year, we will launch Home Screen enhancements to further elevate the streaming experience, driving both deeper engagement and increased Platform monetization.

Advertising Activities

Our differentiated ad offering is built on our significant scale and first-party data, with more than 90 million logged-in Streaming Households globally, as well as our innovative ad formats and open and interoperable CTV ad platform. Roku is the #1 TV streaming platform by hours streamed in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico1, and our significant viewer engagement generates robust ad supply. According to Nielsen’s The GaugeTM report, The Roku Channel is the #2 free, ad-supported streaming app (second only to YouTube) and the #5 streaming app overall in the U.S. In December 2025, The Roku Channel hit an all-time high, representing 6.3% of all TV streaming, up from 4.6% a year ago2. The share of Roku video impressions executed programmatically continues to increase, and as we further expand our programmatic capabilities, we expect to drive higher fill rates and improved monetization.

In 2025, video advertising on our platform grew faster YoY than the U.S. OTT and broader digital ad markets3. We announced enhanced partner integrations, along with ad launches in our international markets, as we increasingly focus on monetization outside the U.S. We expanded our partnership with FreeWheel to activate Roku inventory via the FreeWheel Streaming Hub, improving demand signals and transparency. We also broadened our measurement partnership with Nielsen to integrate Roku data into Nielsen’s advanced measurement solutions. Additionally, we launched the Roku Ads API, a fully open, self-serve developer platform that enables advertisers to integrate with Roku Ads Manager. Internationally, we partnered with Warner Bros. Discovery to scale ad demand in Mexico. In Brazil, we expanded our Live TV Guide to 30 FAST channels before launching our ad platform in partnership with Mercado Ads.

Throughout the year, we deepened integrations with leading demand-side platforms including Wurl, Yahoo, The Trade Desk, and Amazon DSP to further diversify our demand sources. We also scaled our measurement and performance capabilities through partnerships with INCRMNTAL, iSpot, and AppsFlyer. To empower our partners, we launched the Roku Data Cloud, enabling them to seamlessly analyze and leverage our proprietary TV data to drive measurable results.

Finally, we continue to scale Roku Ads Manager, our robust self-serve platform for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and performance advertisers. With platform partnerships such as Spaceback and the availability of low-cost generative AI video tools, creating high-quality assets for TV has never been more accessible. Our objective is to minimize friction for SMBs while diversifying Roku demand. Today, with

approved creative, an advertiser can move their performance-driven campaigns from “create campaign” to “publish” in under five minutes.

Just minutes from “create campaign” to “publish” on Roku Ads Manager

For example, LolaVie, Jennifer Aniston’s haircare brand, selected Roku as its CTV partner for its first TV ad campaign to expand reach, drive web traffic, and increase retail sales at Ulta Beauty. By leveraging Roku Ads Manager, the brand executed its “Hair People” campaign, contributing to a 40% lift in sales and a 53% YoY increase in new customers as part of its overall marketing strategy.

In 2025, we enhanced our comprehensive advertising solutions to provide partners with greater flexibility in how they buy Roku Media, whether via direct insertion order (IO), a preferred DSP partner, or our self-serve platform. This versatility allows us to serve the full spectrum of advertisers from global enterprises to digital growth marketers. Looking ahead, we remain committed to building the industry’s most open and performant CTV ad platform. We will continue to deepen integrations while launching innovative ad products that leverage the unique power of our Home Screen. Furthermore, we are investing in Roku Ads Manager to capture a vast opportunity, with SMBs estimated to spend more than $600 billion4 on advertising. We expect SMBs to follow the trend of enterprises shifting budgets to CTV, to combine the visual impact of television with the performance of digital. With video production costs declining, our market-leading engagement expanding, and the ability to launch a campaign in minutes, Roku Ads Manager is uniquely positioned to lead this transition.

Streaming Services Distribution Activities

Streaming services distribution activities in Q4 were driven primarily by Premium Subscriptions and our acquisition of Frndly TV®. Throughout 2025, we worked to improve content discovery by upleveling subscriptions in features such as the Content Row, Live TV, and Sports, and now the Roku Experience drives more than half of all subscription sign-ups.

Q4 marked our biggest quarter ever for Premium Subscriptions net adds, benefiting from holiday promotions and our improvements to the Roku Experience. In October, we expanded Premium Subscriptions to Mexico, initially launching with nine leading SVOD partners. We have since grown the offering to 13 partners, with additional launches planned this year. Looking to 2026, building on the successful addition of HBO Max to Premium Subscriptions, we expect to add more tier-one partners. Additionally, we plan to add more great entertainment to Howdy™, the owned-and-operated SVOD service we launched in 2025, and take it to more streaming platforms. We also expect to roll out bundles in Premium Subscriptions this year. In Mexico, we anticipate the FIFA World Cup 2026™ to be a driver of Premium Subscriptions, and we will continue expanding into additional international markets.

Our Sports Experience remains a top content discovery feature, driving viewer engagement and monetization across both ads and subscriptions. Building on enhancements made throughout 2025, such as live scores and game reminders, we integrated YouTube TV into the Sports Experience in Q4. This addition expanded our

growing roster of partners, which includes DAZN Live Sports, FOX One, Paramount+, Peacock, Spectrum TV, and Xfinity Stream, giving viewers streamlined access to their favorite games, highlights, and scores across top leagues. In Q4, subscription sign-ups driven by Roku’s Sports discovery features5 increased nearly 75% YoY. We launched the Sports Experience in Mexico in Q4 and followed with a launch in Brazil in January. We are already engaging sports fans around the Milan Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games and look forward to the FIFA World Cup 2026™ this summer.

Devices

Devices revenue was $171 million in Q4, up 3% YoY, and $592 million for the full year, flat YoY. Q4 Devices revenue and gross profit were slightly above our outlook, due to sales of both players and Roku-made TVs. As a result, Q4 Devices gross margin was (23)%, and full year Devices gross margin was (14)%.

During Q4, we launched Hiro™, a new Roku-made TV (designed, made, and sold by Roku) that enables us to offer consumers the Roku TV OS at a new, more accessible price. This launch expands our Roku TV program, which includes a broad mix of brands, feature sets, and price points. Hiro Roku TVs are available exclusively at Target, further diversifying our retail distribution. Earlier in 2025, we introduced a refreshed lineup of our Pro, Plus, and Select Series Roku-made TVs featuring enhanced picture and sound quality. We also launched a new form factor, with the Aurzen Roku TV Smart Projector D1R Cube and the Vankyo Roku TV Smart Projector. In addition, we launched two new streaming players, the Roku® Streaming Stick® and Roku Streaming Stick Plus, designed for portability and power-efficiency. These players are 35% smaller than other brands and powered directly by the TV (no separate power adaptor needed).

Outside the U.S., we brought the Roku Streaming Stick and Roku Streaming Stick Plus to Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and our other markets in Latin America. We also introduced Roku-made TVs to Canada, available exclusively at Best Buy, including QLED 4K models ranging from 50” to 75”, as well as smaller 4K and HD sizes, all featuring a premium design and our easy-to-use interface. Throughout 2025, we continued to deepen the availability of Roku TV models in key markets, announcing new partner Roku TV models with Hyundai in

Mexico, Colombia, and Peru; Noblex in Argentina; Finlandek in Colombia; and Vitado in the U.K. Globally, we work with 45 TV OEM brands across 17 countries.

Looking to 2026, we are committed to growing our scale and strengthening our market leadership through our diversified device strategy of streaming players, Roku TV models, Roku-made TVs, and Roku TV smart projectors. We are growing our partnerships with TV OEMs and have expanded licensing agreements with many of our largest and long-term Roku TV partners. We continue to expand our retail distribution and remain an important part of retailers’ TV assortment because consumers love Roku.

Driven by our powerful brand and strategic partnerships with OEMs and retail distributors, we expect to continue growing Streaming Households in all our locations. We remain on track to achieve a significant milestone of 100 million Streaming Households globally in 2026.

Outlook

Before providing outlook, we want to take a moment to reflect on our execution over the past several years.

In 2023, our priority was to right-size our cost structure and reach Adjusted EBITDA breakeven by 2024. We achieved that goal a full year ahead of schedule. This early progress positioned us in 2024 to reinvest in our key Platform monetization initiatives, including third-party demand integration, subscriptions, and our Home Screen. Importantly, we increased investment in these strategic areas while continuing to moderate overall operating expense (OpEx) growth. These investments are now beginning to inflect and contributed meaningfully to Platform revenue growth in 2025.

On the profitability front, we previously set a goal to achieve positive operating income in 2026. We reached that milestone in the second half of 2025 and were nearly breakeven for the full year. Net income was positive for the year, Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 255 basis points, and stock-based compensation declined YoY.

In addition, we announced a $400 million stock repurchase program in the third quarter and have already repurchased approximately $150 million. Combined with the net share settlement program we implemented in 2023, we see a clear path to fully offset dilution in 2026. Together, these actions reflect our continued focus on disciplined capital allocation and align with our north star of maximizing Free Cash Flow per share.

For Q1, we anticipate Platform revenue growing more than 21% YoY and Devices revenue down mid-single digits YoY. We expect this to result in Total net revenue of $1.200 billion, up roughly 18% YoY, with Total gross profit of $530 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $130 million.

For full year 2026, we anticipate Platform revenue to grow 18% YoY to $4.890 billion, with gross margin between 51% to 52%. We expect Devices revenue to grow low-single digits YoY to $610 million, with gross margin in the negative mid-teens, roughly in line with 2025. We expect Total net revenue of $5.500 billion, Total gross profit of $2.435 billion, and Adjusted EBITDA of $635 million – resulting in an Adjusted EBITDA margin improvement of 267 basis points. We are maintaining our focus on operational discipline, while continuing to invest in Platform growth. For OpEx, we expect it to be more heavily weighted in the second half of the year due to shifting retail distribution spend, but we still anticipate mid-single-digit YoY growth for the full year. We are executing against our strategy and enter 2026 well-positioned to drive sustained double-digit Platform growth and improving profitability.

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 total other income, net, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, restructuring charges, and income tax (benefit) expense from the net income (loss) of the period, and the FCF reconciliation excludes capital expenditures and effects of exchange rates from the cash flow from operations of the period, 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.
