Fox to Buy Roku for $160 a Share in $22 Billion Cash-and-Stock Deal
Fox Corp. agreed to acquire Roku in a cash-and-stock deal valued at about $22 billion including debt, or $160 a share. Roku shareholders are set to receive $96 in cash and 0.9693 Fox Class A shares for each share they own, leaving Fox investors with 73% of the combined company and Roku shareholders with 27%.
The acquisition gives Fox a bigger position in streaming and ad-supported video as viewers move online, pairing its sports, news and entertainment assets, including Tubi, with Roku's connected-TV platform and The Roku Channel, plus first-party data and direct relationships with more than 100 million global streaming households. The companies expect about $400 million of annual run-rate cost synergies and aim to close the transaction in the first half of 2027; Fox shares fell sharply after the announcement.
