People already spend more time indoors during the winter months. Add to that the winter surge in COVID-19 cases and users had a strong incentive to stay indoors and stream content. The opposite case may play out when Roku reports its first-quarter results, as more people are getting vaccinated, the number of people getting sick with COVID-19 decreases and more people venture out to once again socialize.</p>\n<p>Despite the short-term volatility, Roku is the beneficiary of a secular tailwind. According to Parks Associates, 43% of all broadband households in the U.S. that currently pay for traditional TV are likely to switch to streaming in the next 12 months.</p>\n<p>Another way Roku is getting people to stream more hours is by expanding its reach. It's now available in the U.K., Canada, Brazil, and Mexico. It's already the No. 1 smart TV operating system in Canada and is making good progress in its other international markets.</p>\n<p>The vast majority of Roku's gross profits come from its platform segment, where the company sells ads to marketers. In the most recent quarter, $300 million of the company's $305 million gross profit came from the platform segment. And, of course, marketers are willing to pay more money if they can reach larger audiences. That's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> reason why the overall streaming hours metric is so important.</p>\n<h2>What this could mean for investors</h2>\n<p>Analysts on Wall Street expect Roku to report revenue of $490 million and a loss per share of $0.15, which would be increases of 52.9% and 333%, respectively, from last year.</p>\n<p>In the last 12 months, share prices for the streaming platform provider and streaming hardware producer are up over 180%. Still, it's trading at a forward price-to-sales ratio of 17, down from its peak of above 24 earlier in the year. If Roku's stock price falls following the report, it could be a buying opportunity for long-term investors looking for a high-growth stock and willing to accept the higher risk that comes along with such stocks.</p>\n<p>Roku's long-run prospects are excellent with the secular shift from linear TV viewing to streaming.
