Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation | 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Roku, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation Certain prior period amounts within cash flow from operations in the statement of cash flows, have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net cash provided by operating activities for any period reported. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgements, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include: for revenue recognition, determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, variable consideration, determining the stand-alone selling prices of performance obligations, gross versus net revenue recognition, evaluation of customer versus vendor relationships, and other obligations such as sales return reserves and sales incentive programs; the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets; useful lives of tangible and intangible assets; allowances for doubtful accounts; the valuation of deferred income tax assets; and stock-based compensation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates and assumptions. Comprehensive Loss The comprehensive loss is equal to the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020. Comprehensive loss includes unrealized gains on the Company’s short-term investments and foreign currency translation adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2019. Comprehensive loss includes unrealized losses on the Company’s short-term investments for the year ended December 31, 2018. Income taxes on the unrealized gains or losses are not material. Foreign Currency The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are remeasured into U.S. dollars from the local currency at rates in effect at period-end and nonmonetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during each period. Foreign currency gains or losses from re-measurement and transaction gains or losses are recorded as other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a foreign currency gain of $1.3 million. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a foreign currency loss of $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2020, two financial institutions managed 46% and 26%, respectively, of the Company’s total cash and cash equivalents balance. As of December 31, 2019, the same two financial institutions managed 65% and 34%, respectively, of the Company’s total cash and cash equivalents balance. Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers. They are stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for sales returns, sales incentives and doubtful accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses and doubtful accounts. The Company considers historical experience, ongoing promotional activities, historical claim rate and other factors to determine the allowances for sales returns and sales incentives. Allowance for Sales Returns : Allowance for sales returns consist of the following activities (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ (6,550 ) $ (7,335 ) $ (6,907 ) Charged to revenue (14,594 ) (15,541 ) (17,396 ) Utilization of sales return reserve 15,232 16,326 16,968 Ending balance $ (5,912 ) $ (6,550 ) $ (7,335 ) Allowance for Sales Incentives : Allowance for sales incentives consisted of the following activities (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ (19,476 ) $ (13,750 ) $ (10,442 ) Charged to revenue (68,315 ) (65,676 ) (50,958 ) Utilization of sales incentive reserve 56,953 59,950 47,650 Ending balance $ (30,838 ) $ (19,476 ) $ (13,750 ) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts : Allowance for doubtful accounts consisted of the following activities (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Balance, beginning of period $ (1,140 ) (686 ) (63 ) Impact of adoption of ASU 2016-13 (1,066 ) — — Adjusted balance, beginning of period (2,206 ) (686 ) (63 ) Provision for doubtful accounts $ (3,801 ) $ (704 ) $ (876 ) Adjustments for recovery and write-off 1,826 250 253 Balance, end of period (4,181 ) (1,140 ) (686 ) Customer H accounted for 11% of the accounts receivable, net balance as of December 31, 2020. The Company did not have any customer that accounted for more than 10% of its accounts receivable, net balance as of December 31, 2019. Business Combinations The Company determines whether a transaction meets the definition of a business combination before applying the acquisition method of accounting to that transaction. The Company allocates the fair value of the purchase consideration of its acquisitions to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The operating results of acquired business is included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations beginning on their effective acquisition date. Acquisition-related expenses and certain acquisition restructuring and other related charges are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. Contingent consideration arrangements are recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date with subsequent fair value adjustments recorded in operations. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. In addition, uncertain tax positions and tax-related valuation allowances are initially recorded in connection with a business combination as of the acquisition date. The Company continues to collect information and reevaluates these estimates and assumptions quarterly and records any adjustments to the Company’s preliminary estimates to goodwill provided that the Company is within the measurement period. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our consolidated statements of operations. Intangible Assets Intangible assets acquired through business combinations are recorded at their fair values upon acquisition close. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The Company evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of its intangible assets annually and when events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining periods of amortization. Impairment Assessments The Company evaluates goodwill for possible impairment at least annually during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more often, if and when circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. This includes but is not limited to significant adverse changes in the business climate, market conditions, or other events that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. In performing its annual assessment, the Company can opt to perform a qualitative assessment to test a reporting unit’s goodwill for impairment or it can directly perform a quantitative assessment. Based on the Company’s qualitative assessment, if it is determined that the fair value of our reporting unit is, more likely than not, less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative assessment is performed. Any excess of the reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value is be recorded as an impairment loss. The Company reviews long-lived assets, intangible assets and capitalized licensed content assets with finite lives for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of those assets are no longer appropriate. The Company assesses these assets for impairment based on their estimated undiscounted future cash flows. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset group. The Company did not recognize any impairment for goodwill, intangible assets or capitalized licensed content assets in any periods reported. The impairments of operating right-of-use assets during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were not material. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s contracts include various product or services or a combination of both, which are generally capable of being distinct and are accounted for as separate performance obligations. The Company’s contracts often contain multiple distinct performance obligations. The Company estimates the transaction price of a contract based on the expected value for which a significant reversal of revenue is not expected to occur. The estimate of the variable consideration is based on the assessment of historical, current, and forecasted performance noted and expected from the performance obligation. In arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the estimated transaction price of each contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on relative stand-alone selling price (“SSP”). For performance obligations routinely sold separately, the SSP is determined by evaluating such stand-alone sales. For those performance obligations that are not routinely sold separately, the Company determines SSP based on market conditions and other observable inputs. When the Company sells third-party goods and services, it evaluates whether the Company is the principal, and reports revenues on a gross basis, or an agent, and reports revenues on a net basis. In this assessment, the Company considers if it obtains control of the specified goods or services before they are transferred to the customer, as well as other indicators such as the party primarily responsible for fulfillment, inventory risk, and discretion in establishing price. Revenue is recorded net of taxes collected from customers which are subsequently remitted to the relevant government authority. The Company does not capitalize any cost associated with contract acquisition because it applies a practical expedient and expenses commissions when incurred as most direct contract acquisition costs relate to contracts that are recognized over a period of one year or less. Sales commissions are included in Sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. As-invoiced practical expedient is applied when the amount of consideration the Company has a right to invoice corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date. Nature of Products and Services Platform segment: The Company generates platform revenue from the sale of digital advertising and related services, content distribution services, subscription and transaction revenue shares, Premium Subscriptions, billing services, sale of branded channel buttons on remote controls and licensing arrangements with service operators and TV brands. The Company sells digital advertising directly to marketers or through advertising agencies. Revenue from advertising is mostly generated through video and display advertising delivered through advertising impressions. Advertising is typically sold on a cost-per-thousand (“CPM”) basis and is evidenced by an Insertion Order (“IO”). Revenue is recognized as the number of impressions are delivered. IOs may include multiple performance obligations as they contain distinct advertising products or services. For such arrangements, the Company allocates revenue to each distinct performance obligation based on their relative SSP. The Company also generates revenue from customers using its platform. For that it charges a platform fee, which is a percentage of a customer’s advertising inventory spend during the month, along with data and any add-on features purchased through the platform. The Company recognizes revenue on either a gross or net basis for digital advertising based on its determination as to whether it is acting as the principal in the revenue generation process or as an agent. Where the Company is the principal, it controls the advertising inventory before it is transferred to its customers. This is further supported by the Company being primarily responsible to its customers and having a level of discretion in establishing pricing. Advertising arrangements comprised of multiple performance obligations are recognized either at a point in time or over time depending on the nature of the distinct performance obligation. The Company’s content distribution revenue sharing arrangements include cash or non-cash consideration. The revenue sharing arrangements generally apply to new subscriptions for accounts that sign up for new services and at the time of a movie rental or purchase. Revenue is recognized on a net basis as the Company is deemed to be the agent between content publishers and end users. Revenue is recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, as the services are delivered over the contractual distribution term. Non-cash consideration is usually in the form of advertising inventory, the fair value of which is determined based on relevant internal and third-party data. The Company sells monthly subscriptions for premium content on The Roku Channel for varying fees for different content. Revenue from such premium subscription fees is recognized on a gross basis over the service period as the Company is deemed to be the principal in the relationship with the end user. The Company obtains control of the content before transferring to the end user and has latitude in establishing pricing. The Company pays fixed fees to the providers of premium content on The Roku Channel based on the contractual arrangement and recognizes that in Cost of revenue, platform. The Company sells branded channel buttons on remote controls of streaming devices that provide one-touch access to a publisher’s content. The Company typically receives a fixed fee per button for each unit sold over a defined distribution period. Revenue is recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, over the distribution term. The Company licenses the Roku OS, including updates and upgrades, to TV brands and service operators. The licensing revenue is recognized at a point in time, when the Company makes the intellectual property available and the control transfers to the customer. The revenue allocated to unspecified upgrades is recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, over the service period. Professional services revenue is recognized as services are provided or accepted. Hosting fees are recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, over the service period. Player segment: The Company sells the majority of its players and audio products to retail distribution channels in the U.S., including brick and mortar and online retailers, as well as through the Company’s website. Player revenue primarily consists of hardware, embedded software and unspecified upgrades on a when and if-available basis. The hardware and embedded software are considered as one performance obligation and revenue is recognized at a point in time when the control transfers to the customer. Unspecified upgrades or enhancements are available to customers on a when-and-if available basis. The Company records the allocated value of the unspecified upgrades as deferred revenue and recognizes it as player revenue ratably on a time elapsed basis over the estimated economic life of the associated players. The Company’s player revenue includes allowances for sales returns and sales incentives in the estimated transaction price. These estimates are based on historical experience and anticipated performance. Shipping charges billed to customers are included in Revenue and the related shipping costs are included in Cost of revenue. Leases On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the guidance in Leases (Topic 842), Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, accrued liabilities, and operating lease liability in our consolidated balance sheets. represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company applies fair value accounting for all assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value due to its variable interest rates. Inventories The Company’s inventories consist primarily of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Provisions are made if the cost of the inventories exceeds their net realizable value. The Company evaluates inventory levels and purchase commitments for excess and obsolete products, based on management’s assessment of future demand and market conditions. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of the assets, generally ranging between eighteen months and five years The Company capitalizes costs to develop its internal-use software. Costs that relate to the planning and post-implementation phases of development are expensed as incurred. Costs are capitalized when preliminary efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed to funding the project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and will be used as intended. Costs incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional material functionality are capitalized. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company capitalized internal-use software development costs of $2.2 million, $0.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is generally two to three years, beginning when the asset is ready for its intended use. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company amortized expenses of $0.5 million, $1.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Deferred Revenue The Company’s deferred revenue reflects fees received from licensing and service arrangements, including advertising, that will be recognized as revenue over time or as services are rendered. Deferred revenue balances consist of the amount of player sales allocated to unspecified upgrades or enhancements on a when-and-if available basis, licensing and services fees from service operators and TV brands, and payments from advertisers and content publishers. Deferred revenue expected to be realized within one year is classified as current liabilities and the remaining is recorded as noncurrent liabilities. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and are included in Sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred advertising costs of $7.1 million, $7.3 million and $3.0 million for the years December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures compensation expense for all stock-based awards, including restricted stock units and stock options granted to employees, based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant. For restricted stock units, the grant date fair value is based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each stock option is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. Net Loss per Share Since the Company was in a loss position for all periods presented, basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net loss per share for all periods as the inclusion of all potential common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The guidance amended reporting of credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities to require that credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted this guidance using the modified retrospective adoption method and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to the beginning balance of accumulated deficit of approximately $1.1 million. The measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets and subsequent changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in the statements of operations. This impact mainly relates to credit losses recognized on the Company’s doubtful accounts. As the Company did not have any available-for-sale debt securities as of the adoption date, there was no additional impact to accumulated deficit. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-02, Entertainment—Films—Other Assets—Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20) and Entertainment—Broadcasters—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Subtopic 920-350): Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials , in order to align the accounting for production costs of an episodic television series with the accounting for production costs of films by removing the content distinction for capitalization. ASU 2019-02 also requires that an entity reassess estimates of the use of a film in a film group and account for any changes prospectively. In addition, ASU 2019-02 requires that an entity test films and license agreements for program material for impairment at a film group level when the film or license agreements are predominantly monetized with other films and license agreements. On January 1, 2020 , the Company adopted the guidance in ASU 2019-02 . There was no material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company also adopted the following ASUs effective January 1, 2020, none of which had a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. ASU Description ASU 2018-15 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Topic 350), Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract ASU 2018-13 Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ASU 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ASU2019-04 Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments ASU2020-02 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842)—Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ASU2020-03 Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) that is expected to be discontinued, subject to meeting certain criteria. The guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company made a policy election in the second quarter of 2020 to elect a different reference rate for the Credit Agreement when LIBOR is discontinued. It is still uncertain when the transition from LIBOR to another reference rate will occur or which reference rate will become the accepted market alternative to LIBOR.

The contract balances include the following (in thousands): As of December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Accounts receivable, net $ 523,852 $ 332,673 $ 183,078 Contract assets (included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets) 7,431 3,588 753 Deferred revenue, current portion 55,465 39,861 45,442 Deferred revenue, non-current portion 21,283 15,370 19,594 Total deferred revenue $ 76,748 $ 55,231 $ 65,036 Accounts receivable are recorded at the amount invoiced, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, sales returns, and sales incentives. Payment terms can vary by customer and contract. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contract assets are created when invoicing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition. Contract assets are transferred to accounts receivable when the right to invoice becomes unconditional. The Company’s contract assets are generally current in nature and are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets. Contract liabilities are included in deferred revenue and reflect consideration invoiced prior to the completion of performance obligations and revenue recognition. Deferred revenue increased by approximately $21.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2020 due to the increase in estimated values of content publisher and licensing partner arrangements and change in the timing of fulfillment of performance obligations of approximately $12.4 million, and higher growth in the player segment, resulting in a net increase in deferred revenue related to unspecified upgrades of approximately $8.4 million. Deferred revenue decreased by approximately $9.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2019 primarily due to revenue recognized of $5.0 million pursuant to customer acceptance of a milestone, and the remaining revenue recognized primarily relates to the Revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2020 from amounts included in deferred revenue as of December 31, 2019 was $42.9 million. Revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2019 from amounts included in deferred revenue as of December 31, 2018 was $52.5 million. Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents estimated contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Estimated contracted revenue was $513.7 m illion as of December 31, 2020 of which the Company expects to recognize approximately 55 % over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter. The Company recognized $14.4 million and $10.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, from performance obligations that were satisfied in previous periods due to the changes in transaction price of its revenue contracts. Customer C accounted for 12%, 14% and 18% of the total net revenue during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. |

Business Combination | 4. business combination On November 8, 2019, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of dataxu, Inc., (“dataxu”) according to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 22, 2019 (the “Merger Agreement”) . dataxu is a demand-side platform (“DSP”) that enables marketers to plan and buy video ad campaigns. The acquisition of dataxu’s platform complements the Company’s OTT advertising platform and enables marketers to access a single, data-driven software solution to plan, buy, and optimize their ad spend across TV and OTT providers. The total purchase consideration for dataxu was $147.3 million, which consisted of $77.6 million in cash and $69.7 million for the fair value of the Company’s 571,459 shares of Class A common stock. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company had deposited $18.8 million into an escrow account to secure certain indemnifications and other potential obligations. As of the year ended December 31, 2020, a balance of $13.6 million is unreleased and remains in the escrow account. The allocation of the purchase consideration to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on acquisition date is based on estimated fair values and is as follows (in thousands): Assets acquired Fair Values Estimated Useful Lives (in years) Current assets $ 50,829 Restricted cash 1,303 Property and equipment, net 4,503 Intangible assets: Developed Technology 56,400 6.0 Customer relationships 13,400 4.0 Tradename 400 0.5 Goodwill 71,676 Operating lease right-of-use assets 24,658 Other long-term assets 235 Total assets acquired 223,404 Liabilities assumed Current liabilities (51,428 ) Operating lease liabilities (24,658 ) Total liabilities assumed (76,086 ) Total purchase consideration $ 147,318 The fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions regarding certain tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The excess of the total consideration over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is primarily attributable to expected synergies in our advertising offerings and cross-selling opportunities. The goodwill recorded is not deductible for tax purposes. In connection with the acquisition, a deferred tax liability is established for the book/tax differences related to non-goodwill intangible assets. The deferred tax liability is not reflected as the Company also acquired deferred tax assets, including significant net operating losses, that offset the deferred tax liability. Additionally, both companies have full valuation allowances recorded against their respective deferred tax assets, resulting in a net zero adjustment to deferred taxes on the consolidated balance sheets. |

Capitalized Licensed Content Costs [Abstract] | |
Licensed Content Assets | 7. licensed Content Assets The Company licenses content for streaming on The Roku Channel. The licensing arrangements can be for a fixed fee or variable fee. The licensing arrangements specify the period when the content is available for streaming. The Company capitalizes the fixed content fees and its corresponding liability when the license period begins, the cost of the content is known, and the content is accepted and available for streaming. If the licensing fee is not determinable or reasonably estimable, no asset or liability is recorded, and licensing costs are expenses as incurred. The Company amortizes licensed content assets into Cost of Revenue, Platform, using the straight-line method over the contractual period of availability. The liability is paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the arrangement. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the guidance in ASU 2019-02, Entertainment—Films—Other Assets—Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20) and Entertainment—Broadcasters—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Subtopic 920-350): Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials As of December 31, 2020, licensed content assets that met these requirements were $7.9 million and are recorded in “Other non-current assets.” As of December 31, 2019, licensed content assets that met these requirements were $1.7 million and are recorded in Prepaid expenses and other current assets. Payments for content, including additions to content assets and the changes in related liabilities, are classified within Net cash provided by operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company recorded amortization expense of $22.4 million and $2.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, in Cost of revenue, platform in the consolidated statements of operations, related to capitalized licensed content assets.

The film group is evaluated for impairment whenever an event occurs or circumstances change indicating the fair value is less than the carrying value. The Company reviews various qualitative factors and indicators to assess whether the group asset is impaired. As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not recognize any impairment for capitalized licensed content assets. |

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURE The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value are as follows (in thousands): As of December 31, 2020 As of December 31, 2019 Fair Value Level 1 Fair Value Level 1 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents: Cash $ 1,021,022 $ 1,021,022 $ 463,820 $ 463,820 Money market funds 71,793 71,793 51,659 51,659 Restricted cash 434 434 1,854 1,854 Total assets measured and recorded at fair value $ 1,093,249 $ 1,093,249 $ 517,333 $ 517,333 Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal market (or most advantageous market, in the absence of a principal market) for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Further, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value, and to utilize a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: Level 1 —Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities measured using Level 1 inputs include cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Restricted stock units granted under the plan are subject to continuous service. Options granted under the plans are granted at a price per share equivalent to the fair market value on the date of grant. Recipients of option grants who possess more than 10% of the combined voting power of the Company (a “10% Shareholder”) are subject to certain limitations, and incentive stock options granted to such recipients are at a price no less than 110% of the fair market value at the date of grant.

The fair value of restricted stock units that vested during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $ million, $ million and $11.4 million, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock units awarded to employees as of December 31, 2020 was $336.4 million, which the Company expects to recognize over 2.26 years. Stock options The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activities under the 2008 Plan and 2017 Plan (in thousands, except per share data): Number of Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share Aggregate Intrinsic Value Balance, December 31, 2019 11,124 $ 14.84 6.2 — Granted 599 145.17 — $ 54.39 Exercised (2,854 ) 5.89 — — Forfeited and expired (136 ) 48.04 — — Balance, December 31, 2020 - outstanding 8,733 $ 26.19 5.7 — $ 2,670,743 Options exercisable at December 31, 2020 6,144 $ 8.00 4.8 — $ 1,990,694 The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $54.39, $39.23 and $22.96, respectively. The intrinsic value for options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $470.8 million, $474.2 million and $445.9 million, respectively. Intrinsic value represents the difference between the fair values of the Company’s common stock and the options’ exercise price on the date of grant. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $50.8 million of unrecognized stock compensation expense related to unvested stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.78 years. Stock-based Compensation The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant date fair value of the award. Generally, stock options granted to employees vest 25% after one year and then 1/48th monthly thereafter and have a term of ten years. Restricted stock units generally vest over 4 years. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, the amount of stock-based compensation capitalized as part of internal use software was not material. The following table shows total stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Cost of platform revenue $ 847 $ 342 $ 97 Cost of player revenue 1,407 1,072 469 Research and development 58,412 40,036 18,538 Sales and marketing 42,846 24,179 10,459 General and administrative 30,564 19,546 8,111 Total stock-based compensation $ 134,076 $ 85,175 $ 37,674 The fair value of options granted under the 2008 Plan and 2017 Plan is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-valuation model. This valuation model for stock-based compensation expense requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the expected term, the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, an assumed risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. The Company uses the straight-line method for expense recognition. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur. Fair Value of Common Stock: T he Company uses the market closing price for the Class A common stock as reported on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on the date of grant. Expected Term: The Company’s expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding and is determined based on the simplified method as described in ASC Topic 718-10-S99-1, . Expected Volatility: The Company’s volatility factor is estimated using several comparable public company volatilities for similar option terms. Expected Dividends: The Company has never paid cash dividends and has no present intention to pay cash dividends in the future, and as a result, the expected dividends are $0. Risk-Free Interest Rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues with a remaining term equivalent to the estimated life of the stock options. Where the expected term of the Company’s stock options does not correspond with the term for which an interest rate is quoted, the Company performs a straight-line interpolation to determine the rate from the available term maturities. The assumptions used to value stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Expected term (in years) 5.0 - 6.7 5.0 - 6.7 5.3 - 6.8 Risk-free interest rate 0.22 - 1.67% 1.35 - 2.56% 2.32 - 2.88% Expected volatility 36 - 39% 35 - 36% 38 - 40% Dividend rate — — — |

As a result of the Company’s analysis of all available objective evidence, both positive and negative, as of December 31, 2020, management believes it is more likely than not that the U.S. deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. The Company's valuation allowance increased by $169.7 million and $178.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, primarily due to U.S. federal and state tax losses and credits incurred during the period. For federal and state income tax reporting purposes, respective net operating loss carryforwards of $1,423.1 million and $1,273.9 million are available to reduce future taxable income, if any. These net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2028 for federal and certain state net operating losses have expired in 2020. The federal net operating loss generated subsequent to 2017 can be carried forward indefinitely. For U.K. and Denmark income tax reporting purposes, the net operating loss carryforward of $17.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively, is available to reduce the future taxable income, if any. U.K. and Denmark net operating loss can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company also has U.K. research and development tax credit carryforwards of $0.3 million. The credit can be carried forward indefinitely. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has research and development tax credit carryforwards of $82.6 million and $59.4 million for federal and state income tax purposes, respectively. If not utilized, the federal and state carryforwards will begin to expire in 2028 and 2035, respectively. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), contains provisions that may limit the net operating loss and credit carryforwards available for use in any given period upon the occurrence of certain events, including a statutorily defined significant change in ownership. Utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards is subject to an annual limitation due to an ownership change, as defined by section 382 of the Code. The Company has assessed whether any section 382 ownership change has occurred since its formation and determined that a section 382 ownership change occurred on December 18, 2009 and tax attributes generated by the Company through the ownership change date are subject to the limitation. A section 382 study was completed for dataxu covering the period from inception beginning May 1, 2008 through acquisition date of November 8, 2019. Based on the study, the Company identified four ownership changes for Section 382 purposes. As such, tax attributes generated by dataxu through the ownership change dates are subject to the limitation. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2020 is $29.2 million, of which $28.3 million is composed of research and development credits and $0.9 million is related international activities. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands): As of December 31, 2020 2019 Unrecognized tax benefits at beginning of year $ 19,487 $ 14,541 Gross increase for tax positions of current year 9,959 10,378 Gross decrease due to statue expiration (75 ) (88 ) Gross decrease for tax positions of prior years (196 ) (5,344 ) Unrecognized tax benefits balance at end of year $ 29,175 $ 19,487 The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of its income tax expense. As of December 31, 2020, the Company recorded $0.2 million of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. Change in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, if any, would have an immaterial impact on its effective tax rate. The Company does not expect its gross unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly within the next 12 months. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination by Texas Comptroller for calendar tax years 2015, 2016, and 2017. All tax years remain subject to examination by federal and state authorities. These audits include questioning the timing and amount of deductions; the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions; and compliance with federal, state, and local tax laws. The Company will continue to indefinitely reinvest earnings from its foreign subsidiaries, which are not significant. While federal income tax expense has been recognized as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the Company has not provided any additional deferred taxes with respect to items such as foreign withholding taxes, state income tax or foreign exchange gain or loss. It is not practicable for the Company to determine the amount of unrecognized tax expense on these reinvested international earnings. |

Net Loss Per Share | 16. NET LOSS PER SHARE The Company’s basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. For purposes of the calculation of diluted net loss per share options to purchase common stock, restricted stock units and unvested shares of common stock issued upon the early exercise of stock options and business acquisitions are considered common stock equivalents, but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect is antidilutive. Because the Company has reported a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, diluted net loss per common share is the same as the basic net loss per share for those years. The table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share as follows (in thousands, except per share data): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Numerator: Net loss attributable to common stockholders $ (17,507 ) $ (59,937 ) $ (8,857 ) Denominator: Weighted-average shares used in computing net loss per share, basic and diluted 123,978 115,218 104,618 Net loss per share, basic and diluted $ (0.14 ) $ (0.52 ) $ (0.08 ) The potential common shares that were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been antidilutive for the periods presented are as follows (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Equity awards to purchase common stock 13,088 15,668 20,057 Unvested shares of common stock issued upon early exercise of stock options and business acquisition 1 31 70 Total 13,089 15,699 20,127 |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | 17. SEGMENT INFORMATION An operating segment is defined as a component of an entity for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer, and the CODM evaluates performance and makes decisions about allocating resources to its operating segments based on financial information presented on a consolidated basis and on revenue and gross profit for each operating segment. The Company uses the management approach to determine the segment financial information that should be disaggregated and presented separately in the Company’s notes to its consolidated financial statements. The management approach is based on the manner by which management has organized the segments within the Company for making operating decisions, allocating resources, and assessing performance. The Company reports its financial results consistent with the manner in which financial information is viewed by management for decision-making purposes. The Company does not manage operating expenses such as research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses at the segment level. The Company is organized into two reportable segments as follows: Platform Consists of revenue generated from sale of digital advertising, content distribution services, subscription and transaction revenue share including Premium Subscriptions, sale of branded buttons on remote controls and licensing arrangements with service operators and TV brands. Player Consists of revenue generated from sale of streaming players, audio products and accessories through retailers and distributors, as well as directly to customers through the Company’s website. The Company does not allocate property and equipment or any other assets or capital expenditures to reportable segments. Operating expenses are not managed at the segment level. The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on the financial measures, including segment gross profit, which are regularly reviewed by the CODM and provide insight into the individual segments and their ability to contribute to Company’s operating results. Customers accounting for 10% or more of segment revenue, net, were as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Platform segment revenue Customer H 13 % * * Player segment revenue Customer A 10 % 16 % 15 % Customer B 18 % 17 % 15 % Customer C 40 % 39 % 38 % Revenue in international markets was less than 10% in each of the periods presented. Substantially all Company assets were held in the United States and were attributable to the operations in the United States as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Roku, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation | Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation Certain prior period amounts within cash flow from operations in the statement of cash flows, have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net cash provided by operating activities for any period reported. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgements, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include: for revenue recognition, determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, variable consideration, determining the stand-alone selling prices of performance obligations, gross versus net revenue recognition, evaluation of customer versus vendor relationships, and other obligations such as sales return reserves and sales incentive programs; the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets; useful lives of tangible and intangible assets; allowances for doubtful accounts; the valuation of deferred income tax assets; and stock-based compensation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates and assumptions. |
Comprehensive Loss | Comprehensive Loss The comprehensive loss is equal to the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020. Comprehensive loss includes unrealized gains on the Company’s short-term investments and foreign currency translation adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2019. Comprehensive loss includes unrealized losses on the Company’s short-term investments for the year ended December 31, 2018. Income taxes on the unrealized gains or losses are not material. |
Foreign Currency | Foreign Currency The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are remeasured into U.S. dollars from the local currency at rates in effect at period-end and nonmonetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during each period. Foreign currency gains or losses from re-measurement and transaction gains or losses are recorded as other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a foreign currency gain of $1.3 million. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a foreign currency loss of $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2020, two financial institutions managed 46% and 26%, respectively, of the Company’s total cash and cash equivalents balance. As of December 31, 2019, the same two financial institutions managed 65% and 34%, respectively, of the Company’s total cash and cash equivalents balance. |
Accounts Receivable, Net | Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers. They are stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for sales returns, sales incentives and doubtful accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses and doubtful accounts. The Company considers historical experience, ongoing promotional activities, historical claim rate and other factors to determine the allowances for sales returns and sales incentives. Allowance for Sales Returns : Allowance for sales returns consist of the following activities (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ (6,550 ) $ (7,335 ) $ (6,907 ) Charged to revenue (14,594 ) (15,541 ) (17,396 ) Utilization of sales return reserve 15,232 16,326 16,968 Ending balance $ (5,912 ) $ (6,550 ) $ (7,335 ) Allowance for Sales Incentives : Allowance for sales incentives consisted of the following activities (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ (19,476 ) $ (13,750 ) $ (10,442 ) Charged to revenue (68,315 ) (65,676 ) (50,958 ) Utilization of sales incentive reserve 56,953 59,950 47,650 Ending balance $ (30,838 ) $ (19,476 ) $ (13,750 ) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts : Allowance for doubtful accounts consisted of the following activities (in thousands): Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Balance, beginning of period $ (1,140 ) (686 ) (63 ) Impact of adoption of ASU 2016-13 (1,066 ) — — Adjusted balance, beginning of period (2,206 ) (686 ) (63 ) Provision for doubtful accounts $ (3,801 ) $ (704 ) $ (876 ) Adjustments for recovery and write-off 1,826 250 253 Balance, end of period (4,181 ) (1,140 ) (686 ) Customer H accounted for 11% of the accounts receivable, net balance as of December 31, 2020. The Company did not have any customer that accounted for more than 10% of its accounts receivable, net balance as of December 31, 2019. |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations The Company determines whether a transaction meets the definition of a business combination before applying the acquisition method of accounting to that transaction. The Company allocates the fair value of the purchase consideration of its acquisitions to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The operating results of acquired business is included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations beginning on their effective acquisition date. Acquisition-related expenses and certain acquisition restructuring and other related charges are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. Contingent consideration arrangements are recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date with subsequent fair value adjustments recorded in operations. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. In addition, uncertain tax positions and tax-related valuation allowances are initially recorded in connection with a business combination as of the acquisition date. The Company continues to collect information and reevaluates these estimates and assumptions quarterly and records any adjustments to the Company’s preliminary estimates to goodwill provided that the Company is within the measurement period. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our consolidated statements of operations. |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets Intangible assets acquired through business combinations are recorded at their fair values upon acquisition close. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The Company evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of its intangible assets annually and when events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining periods of amortization. |
Impairment Assessment | Impairment Assessments The Company evaluates goodwill for possible impairment at least annually during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more often, if and when circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. This includes but is not limited to significant adverse changes in the business climate, market conditions, or other events that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. In performing its annual assessment, the Company can opt to perform a qualitative assessment to test a reporting unit’s goodwill for impairment or it can directly perform a quantitative assessment. Based on the Company’s qualitative assessment, if it is determined that the fair value of our reporting unit is, more likely than not, less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative assessment is performed. Any excess of the reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value is be recorded as an impairment loss. The Company reviews long-lived assets, intangible assets and capitalized licensed content assets with finite lives for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of those assets are no longer appropriate. The Company assesses these assets for impairment based on their estimated undiscounted future cash flows. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset group. The Company did not recognize any impairment for goodwill, intangible assets or capitalized licensed content assets in any periods reported. The impairments of operating right-of-use assets during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were not material. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s contracts include various product or services or a combination of both, which are generally capable of being distinct and are accounted for as separate performance obligations. The Company’s contracts often contain multiple distinct performance obligations. The Company estimates the transaction price of a contract based on the expected value for which a significant reversal of revenue is not expected to occur. The estimate of the variable consideration is based on the assessment of historical, current, and forecasted performance noted and expected from the performance obligation. In arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the estimated transaction price of each contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on relative stand-alone selling price (“SSP”). For performance obligations routinely sold separately, the SSP is determined by evaluating such stand-alone sales. For those performance obligations that are not routinely sold separately, the Company determines SSP based on market conditions and other observable inputs. When the Company sells third-party goods and services, it evaluates whether the Company is the principal, and reports revenues on a gross basis, or an agent, and reports revenues on a net basis. In this assessment, the Company considers if it obtains control of the specified goods or services before they are transferred to the customer, as well as other indicators such as the party primarily responsible for fulfillment, inventory risk, and discretion in establishing price. Revenue is recorded net of taxes collected from customers which are subsequently remitted to the relevant government authority. The Company does not capitalize any cost associated with contract acquisition because it applies a practical expedient and expenses commissions when incurred as most direct contract acquisition costs relate to contracts that are recognized over a period of one year or less. Sales commissions are included in Sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. As-invoiced practical expedient is applied when the amount of consideration the Company has a right to invoice corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date. Nature of Products and Services Platform segment: The Company generates platform revenue from the sale of digital advertising and related services, content distribution services, subscription and transaction revenue shares, Premium Subscriptions, billing services, sale of branded channel buttons on remote controls and licensing arrangements with service operators and TV brands. The Company sells digital advertising directly to marketers or through advertising agencies. Revenue from advertising is mostly generated through video and display advertising delivered through advertising impressions. Advertising is typically sold on a cost-per-thousand (“CPM”) basis and is evidenced by an Insertion Order (“IO”). Revenue is recognized as the number of impressions are delivered. IOs may include multiple performance obligations as they contain distinct advertising products or services. For such arrangements, the Company allocates revenue to each distinct performance obligation based on their relative SSP. The Company also generates revenue from customers using its platform. For that it charges a platform fee, which is a percentage of a customer’s advertising inventory spend during the month, along with data and any add-on features purchased through the platform. The Company recognizes revenue on either a gross or net basis for digital advertising based on its determination as to whether it is acting as the principal in the revenue generation process or as an agent. Where the Company is the principal, it controls the advertising inventory before it is transferred to its customers. This is further supported by the Company being primarily responsible to its customers and having a level of discretion in establishing pricing. Advertising arrangements comprised of multiple performance obligations are recognized either at a point in time or over time depending on the nature of the distinct performance obligation. The Company’s content distribution revenue sharing arrangements include cash or non-cash consideration. The revenue sharing arrangements generally apply to new subscriptions for accounts that sign up for new services and at the time of a movie rental or purchase. Revenue is recognized on a net basis as the Company is deemed to be the agent between content publishers and end users. Revenue is recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, as the services are delivered over the contractual distribution term. Non-cash consideration is usually in the form of advertising inventory, the fair value of which is determined based on relevant internal and third-party data. The Company sells monthly subscriptions for premium content on The Roku Channel for varying fees for different content. Revenue from such premium subscription fees is recognized on a gross basis over the service period as the Company is deemed to be the principal in the relationship with the end user. The Company obtains control of the content before transferring to the end user and has latitude in establishing pricing. The Company pays fixed fees to the providers of premium content on The Roku Channel based on the contractual arrangement and recognizes that in Cost of revenue, platform. The Company sells branded channel buttons on remote controls of streaming devices that provide one-touch access to a publisher’s content. The Company typically receives a fixed fee per button for each unit sold over a defined distribution period. Revenue is recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, over the distribution term. The Company licenses the Roku OS, including updates and upgrades, to TV brands and service operators. The licensing revenue is recognized at a point in time, when the Company makes the intellectual property available and the control transfers to the customer. The revenue allocated to unspecified upgrades is recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, over the service period. Professional services revenue is recognized as services are provided or accepted. Hosting fees are recognized on a time elapsed basis, by day, over the service period. Player segment: The Company sells the majority of its players and audio products to retail distribution channels in the U.S., including brick and mortar and online retailers, as well as through the Company’s website. Player revenue primarily consists of hardware, embedded software and unspecified upgrades on a when and if-available basis. The hardware and embedded software are considered as one performance obligation and revenue is recognized at a point in time when the control transfers to the customer. Unspecified upgrades or enhancements are available to customers on a when-and-if available basis. The Company records the allocated value of the unspecified upgrades as deferred revenue and recognizes it as player revenue ratably on a time elapsed basis over the estimated economic life of the associated players. The Company’s player revenue includes allowances for sales returns and sales incentives in the estimated transaction price. These estimates are based on historical experience and anticipated performance. Shipping charges billed to customers are included in Revenue and the related shipping costs are included in Cost of revenue. |
Leases | Leases On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the guidance in Leases (Topic 842), Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, accrued liabilities, and operating lease liability in our consolidated balance sheets. represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company applies fair value accounting for all assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value due to its variable interest rates. |
Inventories | Inventories The Company’s inventories consist primarily of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Provisions are made if the cost of the inventories exceeds their net realizable value. The Company evaluates inventory levels and purchase commitments for excess and obsolete products, based on management’s assessment of future demand and market conditions. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of the assets, generally ranging between eighteen months and five years The Company capitalizes costs to develop its internal-use software. Costs that relate to the planning and post-implementation phases of development are expensed as incurred. Costs are capitalized when preliminary efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed to funding the project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and will be used as intended. Costs incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional material functionality are capitalized. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company capitalized internal-use software development costs of $2.2 million, $0.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is generally two to three years, beginning when the asset is ready for its intended use. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company amortized expenses of $0.5 million, $1.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively. |
Deferred Revenue | Deferred Revenue The Company’s deferred revenue reflects fees received from licensing and service arrangements, including advertising, that will be recognized as revenue over time or as services are rendered. Deferred revenue balances consist of the amount of player sales allocated to unspecified upgrades or enhancements on a when-and-if available basis, licensing and services fees from service operators and TV brands, and payments from advertisers and content publishers. Deferred revenue expected to be realized within one year is classified as current liabilities and the remaining is recorded as noncurrent liabilities. |
Advertising Costs | Advertising Costs Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and are included in Sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred advertising costs of $7.1 million, $7.3 million and $3.0 million for the years December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures compensation expense for all stock-based awards, including restricted stock units and stock options granted to employees, based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant. For restricted stock units, the grant date fair value is based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each stock option is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. |
Net Loss per Share | Net Loss per Share Since the Company was in a loss position for all periods presented, basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net loss per share for all periods as the inclusion of all potential common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The guidance amended reporting of credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities to require that credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted this guidance using the modified retrospective adoption method and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to the beginning balance of accumulated deficit of approximately $1.1 million. The measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets and subsequent changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in the statements of operations. This impact mainly relates to credit losses recognized on the Company’s doubtful accounts. As the Company did not have any available-for-sale debt securities as of the adoption date, there was no additional impact to accumulated deficit. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-02, Entertainment—Films—Other Assets—Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20) and Entertainment—Broadcasters—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Subtopic 920-350): Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials , in order to align the accounting for production costs of an episodic television series with the accounting for production costs of films by removing the content distinction for capitalization. ASU 2019-02 also requires that an entity reassess estimates of the use of a film in a film group and account for any changes prospectively. In addition, ASU 2019-02 requires that an entity test films and license agreements for program material for impairment at a film group level when the film or license agreements are predominantly monetized with other films and license agreements. On January 1, 2020 , the Company adopted the guidance in ASU 2019-02 . There was no material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company also adopted the following ASUs effective January 1, 2020, none of which had a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. ASU Description ASU 2018-15 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Topic 350), Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract ASU 2018-13 Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ASU 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ASU2019-04 Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments ASU2020-02 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842)—Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ASU2020-03 Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) that is expected to be discontinued, subject to meeting certain criteria. The guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company made a policy election in the second quarter of 2020 to elect a different reference rate for the Credit Agreement when LIBOR is discontinued. It is still uncertain when the transition from LIBOR to another reference rate will occur or which reference rate will become the accepted market alternative to LIBOR. Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes |
Fair Value Disclosure | The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value are as follows (in thousands): As of December 31, 2020 As of December 31, 2019 Fair Value Level 1 Fair Value Level 1 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents: Cash $ 1,021,022 $ 1,021,022 $ 463,820 $ 463,820 Money market funds 71,793 71,793 51,659 51,659 Restricted cash 434 434 1,854 1,854 Total assets measured and recorded at fair value $ 1,093,249 $ 1,093,249 $ 517,333 $ 517,333 Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal market (or most advantageous market, in the absence of a principal market) for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Further, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value, and to utilize a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: Level 1 —Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities measured using Level 1 inputs include cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company measured money market funds of $71.8 million and $51.7 million as cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, using Level 1 inputs. Level 2 —Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means. The Company did not have any Level 2 instruments as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. Level 3 —Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities and reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company did not have Level 3 instruments at December 31, 2020 and 2019. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis Non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets and licensed content assets are evaluated for impairment and adjusted to fair value using Level 3 inputs, only when impairment is recognized. The impairments for operating ROU assets recorded by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were not material. |
