Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 26% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 27, 2025
Uber's finances are getting stronger: last quarter it earned over $1B from regular operations, showing the core business is working. A new delivery deal with Hibbett expands its potential customer base and keeps users engaged. Buying interest cooled after a recent dip, and rules or price-sensitive riders are risks. With better profits and fresh partnerships, buying small on dips for a possible 3-month rebound is reasonable.
Primary drivers
- Passing $1B in operating profit shows the model is scaling and gaining strength
- Hibbett partnership extends delivery reach and brings in more recurring customers
- Positive mood and higher trading activity point to ongoing buyer interest
- Costs per trip and order are improving, lifting profit on each transaction
How it played out
UBER: target was not reached
Lyra published UBER at $95.89 on 2025-10-27 with an expected 18% short-term gain. The thesis pointed to stronger finances, including more than $1B from regular operations, a Hibbett delivery partnership, buyer interest after a dip, and improving costs per trip and order.
Inside the window, UBER peaked at $100.35 on 2025-11-03, a 4.7% gain. It stayed below the $113.15 target, so the target was never reached. By 2026-01-25, it ended at $82.31. The thesis only partially played out, because the stock rose early but missed the target and finished below the publication price.
What happened during the window
On 2025-11-04, Uber reported third-quarter results and gave fourth-quarter guidance. On 2025-11-26, Uber and WeRide launched fully driverless robotaxi commercial operations in Abu Dhabi.
