The U.S. TV streaming company Roku Inc. (ROKU) is currently buoying near to its 52-week high. But, considering Roku’s rapid growth this year, analysts at investment banking and asset management firm Needham have recently pointed out that the company can still perform better. Strategy of using the content from streaming services was the big driving force behind Roku’s that growth.
Roku is being positively driven by the users’ trend of shifting away from cable TV. The pattern emerged even before the pandemic, so it is not just COVID-19 and a decline in social activity that can be credited to Roku’s current financial performance. The number of viewing devices in households is increased by a wide variety of streaming service providers with their diverse content. If TV was previously the primary source of content, now it’s laptops, computers and smartphones. The company has a unique place among rivals and this is a favorable scenario for Roku as it generates revenue from both video on demand and content subscriptions. Furthermore, working together with several content providers at the same time provides Roku with opportunity to be benefited from the production of any of them.
