Roku may have finally gained some mainstream prominence, but it remains one of the least considered streaming services. Despite that lack of real market saturation, the company continues to perform strongly, with December 2025 now its all-time high month, as Brandon Blake, check entertainment attorney Los Angeles with Blake & Wang P.A., is here to share
Positive Net Income
Alongside that monthly high of 6.3% of all TV streaming, Roku also had a strong fourth quarter. Their $1.5B of net revenue is a 16% uptick on the year and managed to exceed Wall Street expectations. Net income was $80.5M, or $0.53 per share. Platform revenue was the bulk, at $1.2B, an 18% boost driven mostly by video ads and interface improvements.
This was also their biggest quarter so far for premium subscriptions, which includes Roku’s third-party bundles. Quite logical, really, given this was also the festive season, and so holiday promotions would have lured in some new eyes. Roku has also been busy with expanded sports offerings, which, considered alone, saw a 75% uptick in interest.
Full Year Results
Given this was the last quarter for the company, we also have their full-year performance. That sees $4.7B in net revenue, or 15% up for the year. Platform revenue again did fantastically, at 18%, or $4.1B. They also saw a fully positive year, hitting $88.3B for net income. To round out the picture, they accounted for 145.6B streaming hours over the year, another 15% gain.
That’s a strong place to start the new year off, too. Currently, they are predicting $1.2B in revenue and $50M in income for the coming quarter, expanded to $5.5B in revenue and $325M for income over the year.
With a new streaming service recently launched, called Howdy, Roku is definitely starting its new year in a very strong place, even though it does not report its full subscriber numbers.
