An update from Uber Technologies ( (UBER) ) is now available.

On May 11, 2026, Uber Technologies, Inc. announced that Chief People Officer Nikki Krishnamurthy had stepped down and would remain as an advisor during a transition period. Jill Hazelbaker, previously Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President of Communications & Public Policy, was appointed President & Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, taking over Krishnamurthy’s remit and oversight of Safety Operations.

The move consolidates human resources, corporate affairs, and safety functions under Hazelbaker, a longtime Uber executive with a background in communications and public policy at Snap Inc., Google, and major U.S. political campaigns. Framed by CEO Dara Khosrowshahi as preparation for rapid change in AI and autonomous vehicles, the appointment signals Uber’s intent to tightly align culture, regulatory engagement, and trust-building with its broader growth strategy; Hazelbaker’s promotion package includes a substantial mix of restricted stock units and stock options tied to time and performance vesting.

The most recent analyst rating on (UBER) stock is a Buy with a $95.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Uber Technologies stock, see the UBER Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on UBER Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, UBER is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by strong fundamentals—especially robust free cash flow and sustained profitability—reinforced by a constructive earnings call focused on durable growth, buybacks, and identifiable tailwinds like 2026 insurance savings. The main constraints are expensive valuation (very high P/E) and a mixed technical picture with the stock still below its 200-day average, while the Türkiye deal adds modest upside with execution/regulatory risk.
