Eric Sheridan has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Uber Technologies’ strong growth potential and strategic initiatives. The macroeconomic environment remains favorable, with no significant consumer trade-down observed, which supports the company’s growth trajectory. Additionally, Uber is focused on enhancing affordability through product innovation, which is expected to drive further demand.
Another key factor is the company’s emphasis on platform initiatives and cross-platform usage, particularly after the appointment of a new COO. There is a substantial opportunity to increase user frequency, as a significant portion of users currently engage with the platform only a few times per month. Furthermore, Uber’s involvement in the autonomous vehicle ecosystem, demonstrated by its high utilization of Waymo vehicles in cities like Austin and Atlanta, underscores its value addition to the broader market. These strategic moves position Uber well for continued growth and justify the Buy rating.
