Ride sharing and on-demand delivery platform Uber (NYSE:UBER) will be reporting earnings this Wednesday before the bell. Here’s what to look for.

Uber beat analysts’ revenue expectations by 1.5% last quarter, reporting revenues of $13.47 billion, up 20.4% year on year. It was a satisfactory quarter for the company, with strong growth in its users but a slight miss of analysts’ EBITDA estimates. It reported 189 million users, up 17.4% year on year.

Meta traded up 10.5% following the results while Netflix was down 2.2%.

Debates over possible tariffs and corporate tax adjustments have raised questions about economic stability in 2025. While some of the consumer internet stocks have shown solid performance in this choppy environment, the group has generally underperformed, with share prices down 8.7% on average over the last month. Uber’s stock price was unchanged during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $109.57 (compared to the current share price of $81.03).
