$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$ Grab cuts some 1,000 jobs, layoff 'a shortcut to profitability' 

Grab, Southeast Asia's biggest ride-hailing and food delivery firm, is rolling out cost-cutting measures to cope with an uncertain macroeconomic backdrop, the Singapore-based company's chief executive told staff in a memo.

The measures include a freeze on most hiring, salary freezes for senior managers, and cuts in travel and expense budgets, co-founder and CEO Anthony Tan said in the memo which happen on first half of the year. With such measure Grab had successfully achieve they are cost cutting goal and bring profit in Q2 '23. 

Key point: 

Q2 2023 Revenue grew 77% year-over-year to $567 million[1]

Q2 2023 Loss for the period improved by 74% year-over-year to $148 million

Q2 2023 Adjusted EBITDA improved by 92% year-over-year to $(20) million

Group Adjusted EBITDA breakeven guidance brought forward to Q3 2023 from Q4 2023

Business outlook look great as Mobility revenues continued to grow strongly, rising 29% YoY, or 31% YoY on a constant currency basis, in the second quarter 2023. The increase was mainly attributed to our efforts to improve supply across the region, which enabled us to capture the recovery in tourism ride-hailing demand, and the growth in domestic demand. With lot of tourists coming in the Singapore and I am bullish on Grab Q3 and Q4 performance.
