Uber Gains After Q1 Beat, Bookings Jump as Robo-Taxi Push Looms
Uber beat expectations with Q1 adjusted earnings of 72 cents per share (vs. 69 cents expected) on revenue of $13.2 billion, which rose 10% in constant currency but fell short of a $13.3 billion estimate. Gross bookings jumped 21% to $53.7 billion, driven by 20% ride-hailing growth and 23% delivery growth. For Q2, Uber guided to 78–82 cents in adjusted EPS and gross bookings of $56.25–$57.75 billion. The stock rose about 7.8% after the report as investors weigh Uber’s solid core growth against its longer-term AV and robo-taxi bets, including partnerships with Rivian and Zoox, and expansion plans to 15 markets by 2026.
