Context and risks
The $22 billion deal to acquire Roku faces active regulatory and political pressure (Newsmax is pressuring the DOJ to block it), adding specific execution and legal risk to this operation. Additionally, rising interest rates make financing an acquisition of this size more expensive, although Fox's balance sheet (Net Debt/EBITDA of 0.87) is solid.
