Hastings Beneficial Ownership in Roku Eliminated by Fox Merger Closing
According to the Form 4 filed on November 10, 2026, Jeff Hastings, a director of Roku, Inc. (NASDAQ:ROKU), reported the disposition of all his directly held Roku securities on November 6, 2026. The filing attributes these dispositions to the closing of the merger between Roku, Inc. and Fox Corporation, completed on that date pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 14, 2026, among Roku, Fox, Falcon Merger Sub 1, Inc., and Falcon Merger Sub 2, LLC.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, the filing states that each share of Roku Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock held by Hastings outstanding immediately prior to the effective time was converted into the right to receive 0.9799 shares of FOX Class A Common Stock, plus $95.30 in cash, without interest, together constituting the "Merger Consideration." This conversion applied to Hastings's 9,629 shares, reducing his direct beneficial ownership to zero.
For stock options, the filing distinguishes between in-the-money and out-of-the-money options. Eight option grants covering a combined 27,183 shares, with exercise prices of $35.99, $69.10, $57.97, $92.37, $80.48, $88.02, $113.80, and $119.64, were fully vested and cancelled in exchange for Vested Company Option Consideration equal to the Merger Consideration reduced by the applicable per-share exercise price. The filing notes that the value of FOX Class A Common Stock for this calculation was based on the closing trading price of FOX Class A Common Stock on November 5, 2026. One option grant covering 954 shares with an exercise price of $347.81 was classified as an out-of-the-money option and was cancelled for no consideration. Additionally, 1,027 RSUs became fully vested immediately prior to the effective time under the Roku Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy and were cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration.
