On August 7, Uber rose 3.52% in regular trading, trading at $74.04 per share, with turnover of $4.17 billion. The stock had declined over 5% in the prior two trading sessions following a mixed Q2 earnings report, and is now extending an oversold recovery.
On the news front, while Q2 revenue of $14.19 billion slightly missed the consensus estimate of $14.24 billion, total gross bookings of $58.02 billion exceeded expectations of $57.17 billion, and adjusted EBITDA of $2.82 billion also topped forecasts. CEO Dara Khosrowshahi attributed the revenue shortfall to a change in accounting treatment in the UK, emphasizing it was not a fundamental issue. He highlighted that consumer spending and the labor market remain healthy, with no signs of trade-down behavior. Additionally, Wells Fargo lowered its target price to $89, while the analyst consensus target remains around $104.66, suggesting continued upside potential from current levels.
