Roku's Speaker Deal Makes No Sense

After a blistering response to its IPO that included a 250% gain in its first two months as a publicly-traded company, Roku's (NASDAQ:ROKU) shares have noticeably cooled this year. Roku's stock currently trades hands at about $50 per share, down year-to-date and trailing the broad market as concerns about its rich valuation overshadow its strong earnings.��

CEO Anthony Wood has been aggressive in his attempts to grow the company. Last year, the company signed deals with Philips to include Roku's technology in their smart televisions; in April, the company inked a similar deal with Sanyo. And in March, the company came to an agreement with Samsung that will bring the ad-supported Roku channel to that manufacturer's line of smart televisions.

Now, Roku's back with a new hardware deal -- but this one doesn't seem as well thought out.

Man looking at chalkboard thinking of business decision.

Roku joins the speaker industry ... sort of

Roku recently announced it would bring a new hardware product to market: wireless speakers. According to the company, the devices will sell for $199.99 after Oct. 15 (earlier prices are as low as $149.99) and will include two speakers plus remotes.

However, it appears their value is limited compared to other similar offerings. Although the product takes voice commands like the Google Home and Amazon�Echo, the functionality is limited to Roku control. Additionally, the speakers' wireless-connectivity function only works with Roku TVs, which the company admits only account for 25% of the smart TV market.

At first glance, Roku's speakers bring little to the table from a differentiation perspective: their limited wireless connectivity fares poorly when compared to the host of Bluetooth-enabled systems available (although the company notes its product will reduce latency to avoid the dreaded lip-sync delay) with limited smart-speaker functions.

A razor-and-blade model doesn't need new razors

The recent investment thesis for Roku was that the company was transitioning away from a lower-margin hardware-focused company to one that would make its money via monetizing streaming delivery. A simple look into the company's first-quarter financial statements shows how the transition is paying off with higher gross profit margins.

Metric Q1 2018 Q1 2017 YOY Growth
Platform Revenue �$75.1 �$36.4 106%
Player Revenue �$61.5 �$63.7 (3%)
Total Revenue �$136.6 �$100.1 36%
Platform Gross Profit �$53.4 �$28.1 90%
Player Gross Profit �$9.7 �$10.8 (10%)
Total Gross Profit �$63.1 �$38.9 62%

Revenue figures in millions. Data Source: Roku's 10Q.�

Although the company has grown total revenue 36% over the prior year,� its gross profit is up 62% because all of progress it's made in the higher-margin platform division.

In the last few quarters, the company's player gross profit has decreased, a natural result of its strategy of selling more hardware at lower prices so as to profit later the higher-margin content segment. Last quarter was celebrated as the first where platform revenue exceeded player revenue. Adding a new hardware product seems antithetical to this approach.

Not a game-changer

A further interesting point is that the speakers appear to be Roku-branded products. This is a clear departure from the pattern of its recent deals with Philips and Sanyo, under which Roku outsourced the hardware production process to a third party.

Although it's likely Roku has a white-box agreement with a manufacturer that allows them to outsource the entire process, the company will still have to deal with the same issues of inventory control, defective merchandise, and returns it has with its stand-alone dongles and players.

In the end, it's likely Roku's foray into speakers will have a limited impact on its bottom line, whether positive or negative. But this appears to be an unnecessary distraction from Roku's main plans to grow its ad-based platform revenue.

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) Slips 1.1% Ahead of Earnings: What To Watch

Shares of Johnson & Johnson (JNJ ) ticked down 1.1% during regular hours Monday, the last day of trading before it releases its latest quarterly earnings report. Investors displayed hesitation ahead of the report, but this is certainly still a stock to watch once the full results are in.

JNJ made headlines last week after it was ordered by a jury to pay $4.69 billion in a case alleging that its talcum powder product causes ovarian cancer. However, it maintains a healthy and still-growing pharmaceutical segment that has been fueled by recent acquisitions. But given concerns about drug pricing, and JNJ’s position as the first pharmaceutical company to report earnings every quarter, Tuesday’s results will have a big role in shaping investor sentiment.

According to our latest Zacks Consensus Estimates, analysts expect Johnson & Johnson to report earnings of $2.06 per share on $20.25 billion in revenue. These results would mark year-over-year growth rates of 12.6% and 7.5%, respectively.

Investors should also note that JNJ’s consensus earnings projection has trended downward over the course of the quarter. Two negative revisions have caused the Zacks Consensus Estimate to tick one cent lower in the past 90 days. It has seen a positive estimate for the next quarter and next financial year, but at the same time has seen negative estimates across the board. This mixed revision activity has contributed to the stock’s Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

Looking at share price performance, JNJ has added 2.7% over the past year. However, the stock has performed poorly as of late, losing nearly 11% on a year-to-date basis. More recently, shares have dropped 4.6% over the trailing 12 weeks.

A strong earnings beat might be what JNJ needs in order to start turning things around. To gauge how likely the company is to outperform estimates tomorrow morning, we can turn to our exclusive Earnings ESP figure.

Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter. The Most Accurate Estimate is a version of the Zacks Consensus whose definition is related to change.

This is done because, generally speaking, when an analyst posts an estimate right before an earnings release, it means that they have fresh information which could potentially be more accurate than what analysts thought about a company two or three months ago.

A positive Earnings ESP paired with a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or better ranking helps us feel confident about the potential for an earnings beat. In fact, our 10-year backtest has revealed that this methodology has accurately produced a positive surprise 70% of the time.

JNJ currently has an Earnings ESP of 0.24%. This, combined with its Zacks Rank, leaves us optimistic about its chances at beating earnings estimates on Tuesday. It is also worth noting that Johnson & Johnson has not missed earnings in over five years.

Make sure to check back here for our full analysis once Johnson & Johnson reports!

Zacks EVP Kevin Matras believes this familiar stock has only just begun its climb to become one of the greatest investments of all time. It’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity to invest in pure genius.

Here's Why Stitch Fix (SFIX) Stock Is Soaring Today

Shares of Stitch Fix (SFIX ) were up more than 8% through early afternoon trading Tuesday after analysts from KeyBanc Capital Markets initiated coverage on the stock with an overweight rating and a bullish price target.

Specifically, KeyBanc’s Ed Yruma acknowledged the subscription-based personal shopping service’s unique use of data.

“Stitch Fix's use of data is a significant advantage relative to the traditional apparel/retail competitive set and allows it to build a scalable, yet highly human, recommendation model,” Yruma wrote in a note to clients.

“We think share gains will continue in the core women's market, and that men's, plus, and now kids will help to further accelerate growth.”

Yruma slapped a $38 price target on SFIX, marking a 22% upside to its previous close. In a further display of how the analyst views Stitch Fix in contrast to its traditional retail peers, he also downgraded shares of Nordstrom (JWN ) and Urban Outfitters (URBN ) .

Tuesday’s gains add to Stitch Fix’s recent momentum, and the stock has now added more than 30% in the past month. SFIX has also started to generate noticeable earnings estimate revision momentum.

Within the past two months, Stitch Fix has witnessed four positive revisions to its full-year 2018 earnings estimates. The company has seen zero negative revisions to full-year estimates in that time. These positive revisions have lifted the Zacks Consensus Estimate for Stitch Fix’s 2018 earnings by six cents.

Positive earnings estimates have earned SFIX a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). The stock is also sporting an “A” grade for Growth in our Style Scores system.

Top 5 Warren Buffett Stocks To Watch For 2019

tags:FORM,SHPG,SOL,IBKR,ENX,

Warren Buffett believes trying to time the market is a waste of time and hazardous to investment success.

The Oracle of Omaha explained why investors should avoid market predictions during Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in 1994, obtained through the CNBC Warren Buffett archive.

"I never have an opinion about the market because it wouldn't be any good and it might interfere with the opinions we have that are good," Buffett said. "If we're right about a business, if we think a business is attractive, it would be very foolish for us to not take action on that because we thought something about what the market was going to do. �� If you're right about the businesses, you'll end up doing fine."
