Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) shares are stuck in reverse on Wednesday after the company reported weaker-than-expected earnings and warned that a strong dollar could impact bookings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43495476/uber-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-growth-in-rides-delivery-and-autonomous-tech-ceo-calls-it-strongest-quarter">in the first quarter</a>.
What Happened: Uber reported fourth-quarter revenue of $12 billion, beating estimates of $11.77 billion, but adjusted earnings per share of 23 cents fell short of estimates of 50 cents, per Reuters.
CEO Dara Khosrowshahi called it Uber&#8217;s &#8220;strongest quarter ever&#8221; as growth accelerated across monthly active platform consumers, trips and gross bookings.
&#8220;Our performance has been powered by rapid innovation and execution across multiple priorities, including the massive opportunity presented by autonomous vehicles. We enter 2025 with clear momentum and will continue to be relentless against our long-term strategy,&#8221; the Uber CEO said.
Looking ahead, Uber guided for first-quarter gross bookings of $42 billion to $43.5 billion, held in check by an estimated 5.5% headwind to year-over-year growth due to a strong dollar. Analysts were reportedly expecting first-quarter gross bookings around $43.5 billion. The company also guided for first-quarter adjusted EBITDA of $1.79 billion to $1.89 billion, which was slightly below analyst forecasts of $1.85 billion at the midpoint.

The company&#8217;s forward outlook appears to be overshadowing Uber&#8217;s strong growth in the quarter. Here&#8217;s a look at other key metrics in Uber&#8217;s fourth-quarter report. 
Total revenue was up 20% on a year-over-year basis, while combined mobility and delivery revenue grew 23% year-over-year. Income from operations totaled $770 million, up $118 million from the prior year&#8217;s quarter. 
Monthly active platform consumers totaled 171 million in the quarter, up 14% year-over-year. Trips grew 18% year-over-year to 3.1 billion and driver and courier earnings increased 16% year-over-year. 
Uber also announced an accelerated share repurchase program to repurchase $1.5 billion worth of its common stock as part of its previously announced $7 billion buyback. 
UBER Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/uber">Uber shares</a> were down 6.95% at $64.95 at the time of publication Wednesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Uber reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43495476/uber-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-growth-in-rides-delivery-and-autonomous-tech-ceo-calls-it-strongest-quarter" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter gross bookings</a> of $44.2 billion (versus Sheridan&#8217;s estimate of $43.97 billion, Street&#8217;s $43.50 billion, &amp; guide of $42.75 billion-$44.25 billion), with Mobility at $22.80 billion &amp; Delivery at $20.13 billion. 
Total revenues were $11.96 billion (versus Sheridan&#8217;s estimate of $11.68 billion &amp; Street&#8217;s $11.76 billion), with Mobility at $6.91 billion, Delivery at $3.77 billion &amp; Freight at $1.28 billion.

Adjusted EBITDA was $1.84 billion (versus Sheridan&#8217;s estimate of $1.87 billion, Street&#8217;s $1.84 billion &amp; guide of $1.78 billion-$1.88 billion). 
By segment:
<ul>
<li>Mobility adjusted EBITDA was $1.77 billion</li>
<li>Delivery was $727 million</li>
<li>Freight was a loss of $22 million. </li>
<li>GAAP EPS was $3.21, compared to Sheridan&#8217;s estimate of 78 cents and Street&#8217;s 50 cents.</li>
</ul>
Uber guided to first-quarter 2025 total bookings of $42 billion—$43.5 billion (compared to Sheridan&#8217;s estimate of $43.30 billion and Street&#8217;s estimate of $43.51 billion) and adjusted EBITDA of $1.79 billion—$1.89 billion (versus Sheridan&#8217;s estimate of $1.82 billion and Street&#8217;s estimate of $1.85 billion).
Sheridan expects investors to have an initial muted reaction to Uber&#8217;s fourth-quarter of 2024 earnings report. 
On the fundamentals, reported Gross Bookings for the quarter came in toward the upper half of its previously guided range (but the 21% foreign-exchange-neutral growth was above the high-end of their foreign-exchange-neutral guidance), with worse foreign-exchange impact, better than feared performance in the Mobility segment specifically, inline on Delivery (versus Sheridan estimates) with modestly weaker results in Freight. 
Adjusted EBITDA aligned with Street and slightly above the mid-point of the previously guided range. For the first quarter of 2025 guidance, Gross Bookings growth of 17%-21% was modestly weaker than Sheridan and Street estimates by 1%-2% at the mid-point. It included a 550bps foreign-exchange headwind, while adjusted EBITDA guidance was roughly in line with Sheridan and Street estimates. 
The San Francisco-based company repurchased $555 million worth of stock in the quarter. In January, it announced an accelerated share repurchase agreement to repurchase $1.5 billion as part of the current $7 billion repurchase authorization. 
Key Risks to Sheridan&#8217;s Buy rating:
<ul>
<li>Slower growth in Mobility due to demand elasticity, maturation, and competition from Autonomous Vehicles</li>
<li>Regulatory environment around driver classification (i.e., compensation, benefits, etc.)</li>
<li>Competitive forces in both Mobility and Delivery</li>
<li>Normalization of consumer discretionary spend habits within Delivery and </li>
<li>Volatility caused by the global macroeconomic environment and investor risk appetite for growth stocks.</li>
</ul>
Price Action: Uber stock is down 6.8% at $65.00 at the last check on Wednesday.

Trump&#8217;s remarks during a Tuesday press conference with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu in which he suggested turning Gaza into the "Riviera of the Middle East" particularly galled world leaders who argue that moving nearly 2 million Palestinians from Gaza is tantamount to ethnic cleansing.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Global Condemnation Is Swift</h2>
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who resides in the West Bank town of Ramallah, weighed in. 
"We will not allow the rights of our people, for which we have struggled for decades and made great sacrifices to achieve, to be infringed upon," Abbas said, <a href="https://www-maannews-net.translate.goog/news/2133916.html?_x_tr_sl=ar&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en&amp;_x_tr_pto=sc">according</a> to Bethlehem-based Ma'an news agency. 
"These calls represent a serious violation of international law, and peace and stability will not be achieved in the region without the establishment of the Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital on the borders of June 4, 1967, based on a two-state solution."
Abbas is visiting Jordan's King Abdullah, who is expected to pay Trump a visit Feb. 11.
Abdullah echoed Abbas' comments. "His Majesty the King stressed the need to stop (Jewish) settlement activities and reject any attempts to annex lands and displace Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank, stressing the need to establish the Palestinians on their land," per a statement published by Jordan's state news agency.
Trump said Jordanian and Egyptian leaders would come around despite their rejections. So far, Egypt and other Arab nations have roundly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43420541/arab-nations-reject-trumps-controversial-gaza-plan-heres-why">rejected the idea</a> of Palestinians in Gaza being moved to their countries.
"Palestinians should not be leaving Gaza while it is being rebuilt,&#8221; said Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty, per <a href="https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/trump-netanyahu-gaza-cabinet-tariffs-02-05-25#cm6rp18oo006p3b6m5ultiy0o">CNN</a>. 
Saudi Arabia also expressed "unwavering" support for a Palestinian state and restated its long-held position that it will not commit to normalization of relations with Israel without such guarantees.
European leaders were practically unanimous in their rejection of Trump&#8217;s plan. "Any idea of displacing the people of Gaza anywhere else would be in clear contradiction with U.N. Security Council resolutions,&#8221; said Irish Foreign Minister Simon Harris. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Congress Members Speak Out</h2>
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called the proposal "problematic," adding that he didn't think sending the U.S. Army to Gaza would sit well with his constituents. "We'll see what the Arab world says, but you know, that'd be problematic at many, many levels."
Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia called the proposal "deranged" and a "magnet for trouble."
"I don't know where this came from, but I can tell you &#8230; that would not get many expressions of support from Democrats or Republicans up here," said Kaine, a member of the Foreign Relations Committee.

10 Financials Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

Arm Holdings Plc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>) is set to report its third-quarter results on Wednesday after the closing bell. Investors will be watching closely to see if the company can beat estimates for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43298802/arm-china-eyes-leadership-change-ai-boom-and-us-china-chip-wars-reshape-the-industry">the fifth consecutive quarter. </a>
What To Watch: Arm's Armv9 architecture penetration across industries drove royalty revenue growth in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41788528/arm-holdings-q2-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-ai-creating-new-opportunities-and-more">the second quarter</a> and investors are looking to see if that trend continued in the third quarter.  However, analysts have warned the broader mobile industry is witnessing slowing growth and stagnant product turnover which could affect royalty revenue. 
Investors will be eyeing the company's free cash flow, which was negative $65 million in the third quarter, and annualized contract value which grew 13% year-over-year to $1.25 billion.
Arm's Compute Subsystems platform and collaborations in AI, data centers and the automotive industry will also be on watch.&nbsp;

Three analysts from Susquehanna, Barclays and Wells Fargo updated coverage on Arm in January with an average price target of $152.33 with an implied downside of 6.66% for Arm shares.&nbsp;
According to estimates from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, analysts expect Arm to report quarterly earnings of 34 cents per share on revenue of $946.73 million.&nbsp; The company beat expectations on both the top and bottom lines in each of the last four consecutive quarters.&nbsp;
ARM Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, Arm Holdings shares are up 4.92% at $170.19 at the time of publication Wednesday.
