Highlights for First Quarter 2022

- Revenue grew 136% YoY to $6.9 billion, or 141% on a constant currency basis, with Revenue growth significantly outpacing Gross Bookings growth primarily due to the acquisition of Transplace by Freight, a change in the business model for our UK Mobility business, and an easier comparison in Q1 2021 due to the accrual for historical claims in the UK.
- Net loss attributable to Uber Technologies, Inc. was $5.9 billion, which includes a $5.6 billion headwind (pre-tax) relating to Uber’s equity investments, primarily due to aggregate unrealized losses related to the revaluation of Uber’s Grab, Aurora, and Didi stakes. Additionally, net loss includes $359 million in stock-based compensation expenses.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $168 million, up $527 million YoY. Adjusted EBITDA margin as a percentage of Gross Bookings was 0.6%, up from (1.8)% in Q1 2021. This translates to 7.6% on a YoY incremental margin basis, as a percentage of Gross Bookings.
