Fox's $22 Billion Roku Acquisition

Fox Corp. announced on Monday, May 15, its acquisition of Roku for approximately $160 per share, totaling around $22 billion. This deal makes Fox the third-largest media provider in the U.S. by monthly television viewership.

The acquisition is driving Fox's stock down, currently trading about 13% lower, due to dilution concerns and questions about the integration of the two companies. Meanwhile, Netflix investors are watching, having learned from their failed Warner Bros. Discovery bid, and aware that acquiring a hardware platform like Roku could have created friction with existing partners.

What to Watch Next

- Fox's share price reaction in the coming weeks, as investors digest the deal's implications.
- Roku's shareholder vote on the acquisition, expected in Q3 2023.
- Netflix's earnings report in late April 2023, for signs of strategic shifts following the Warner Bros. Discovery lesson.
