Uber has struggled to match high growth from its post-pandemic quarters

Overview

  • Uber's Q1 2025 revenue reached $11.53 billion, falling short of analysts' $11.62 billion estimate, while adjusted EPS of $0.83 exceeded the $0.50 forecast.
  • Gross bookings grew 14% year-over-year to $42.82 billion, driven by 15% growth in ride-hailing and 18% in delivery, though both slightly missed projections.
  • The company provided an optimistic Q2 forecast, projecting gross bookings between $45.75 billion and $47.25 billion, above Wall Street expectations.
  • CEO Dara Khosrowshahi highlighted autonomous vehicles as Uber's top growth opportunity, citing strong performance from its Waymo partnership in Austin, Texas.
  • Uber's monthly active platform consumers increased 14% year-over-year to 170 million, but its stock fell around 6% in early trading following the revenue miss.
