Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) reported first-quarter earnings that exceeded Wall Street expectations, but shares fell more than 2% today as revenue narrowly missed estimates and overshadowed strong underlying performance.

The company posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.83, easily beating the $0.51 analyst forecast. However, revenue came in slightly short at $11.53 billion versus the $11.62 billion consensus. Gross bookings rose 14% year-over-year to $42.8 billion, or 18% on a constant currency basis, while trips jumped 18% to 3 billion. Monthly Active Platform Consumers also rose 14%, reinforcing the company’s solid user growth across mobility and delivery services.

Uber delivered a 35% increase in adjusted EBITDA, reaching $1.9 billion for the quarter, with margin expansion to 4.4% of gross bookings, up from 3.7% a year ago. The company also reported more than $2 billion in free cash flow for the quarter, underscoring improved capital efficiency.

Despite the revenue miss, management highlighted strong user retention and scale-driven profitability. Looking ahead, Uber forecasts second-quarter gross bookings between $45.75 billion and $47.25 billion, and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $2.02 billion to $2.12 billion—representing up to 35% growth from the prior year.
