See our latest analysis for Roku. The recent 21.64% 1 month share price return and 51.55% 3 month share price return stand alongside a 74.85% 1 year total shareholder return, pointing to momentum that contrasts with the weaker 5 year total shareholder return, which is down 60.83%. If this kind of move has you looking beyond streaming, it could be a good moment to scan for other growth stories across 39 AI infrastructure stocks With Roku trading at US$125.68, sitting at a reported 40% intrinsic discount and about 15% below the average analyst price target, should you see upside still on the table, or assume the market is already pricing in future growth? ## Most Popular Narrative: 2% Undervalued Roku's most followed narrative pegs fair value at about $128.37, only slightly above the last close at $125.68, which puts the current optimism under a fairly tight microscope. > _The global migration of advertising budgets from linear TV to digital and connected TV, combined with Roku's successful rollout of new ad products (such as Roku Ads Manager) and deeper third-party DSP integrations, increases its share of high-margin digital advertising, which is showing up as both revenue growth and higher platform margins._ _Read the complete narrative._ Want to see what sits behind that high margin ad story, and the fair value tied to it? Revenue mix, margin lift and future earnings all play a crucial role. The full narrative lays out the growth runway, the profitability step up and the valuation multiple that needs to hold for this pricing gap to make sense. **Result: Fair Value of $128.37 (UNDERVALUED)** Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts. However, that upside story can quickly change if competition from larger ecosystems pressures Roku's ad business, or if tighter privacy rules limit how effectively it can monetize viewing data.

The current P/E sits at 92.1x, which is well above both the US Entertainment industry at 27.8x and the peer average at 53.4x.
