Stock Track
Jul 29

Roku Inc (ROKU) shares are soaring 5.03% in intraday trading, buoyed by an optimistic report from Wedbush Securities. The investment firm reiterated its outperform rating on the stock, citing Roku's potential for continued market share gains as advertising spending shifts from traditional linear TV to connected television (CTV).

Wedbush highlighted several factors positioning Roku for success in the evolving media landscape. These include the company's demand-side platform partnerships, high-quality inventory, improved targeting capabilities, sports-adjacent ads, and diverse price points. Analysts believe these strengths will allow Roku to meet a wide range of advertiser requirements, further solidifying its market position.

With Roku's second-quarter results due later this week, Wedbush expressed confidence that the company will at least meet its revenue guidance of $1.07 billion. The firm also noted potential upside to this guidance, citing Roku's increasingly diversified business model. Investors appear to be responding positively to Wedbush's maintained $100 price target, which suggests significant upside from current levels.
