The gains were driven by a 35% jump in active accounts, to 53.6 million, and a 32% rise in average revenue per user (ARPU), to $32.14. Roku's advertising platform is becoming more attractive to marketers as people shift their viewing habits away from traditional TV and toward streaming services. Ad dollars follow eyeballs, and companies are increasingly willing to pay up to advertise on Roku's system. "OneView, our ad platform built for TV streaming, connects brands, performance advertisers, and our content partners with their target audience," CEO Anthony Wood and CFO Steve Louden said in a letter to shareholders.

In Friday afternoon trading, Roku was up 10.7% from Thursday's closing price. Roku has been making several strategic moves in the advertising space, including acquiring Nielsen's advanced video advertising business. That included technology to do "Dynamic Ad Insertion," allowing Roku to offer ads that can be swapped out in real time depending on the viewer. It also acquired "This Old House" and content from defunct streaming provider Quibi to make itself more attractive for advertisers. "We've said historically that the biggest impediment or governor of our ad business growth has been TV buyers' buying patterns, that they traditionally tend to prefer traditional linear TV versus new things like streaming," founder and CEO Anthony Wood said on the earnings call.
