Uber Evolving Into 'Everything App' With Expanding Margins, Tigress Says

Uber Technologies (UBER) is evolving into a "diversified everything app" from predominantly a ride-hailing service, with growing margins, Tigress Financial Partners said Friday.The company has expanded its network of ride-hailing and delivery services, ventured into "platform adjacencies" that offer high margins, and pursued capital-light partnerships with autonomous and electric vehicle manufacturers, Tigress Director of Research Ivan Feinseth said in a note to clients.The brokerage noted Uber's partnerships and collaborations with major players such as Nvidia (NVDA), Alphabet's (GOOG, GOOGL) Waymo, Mobileye Global (MBLY), Rivian Automotive, (RIVN), Lucid Group (LCID) and Expedia Group (EXPE)."Uber is turning its scaled mobility and delivery networks, high-margin platform adjacencies, combined with its capital-light, (artificial intelligence-driven) AV/EV and travel partnerships, into a diversified everything app with expanding margins and long-term compounding potential," Feinseth said.Last month, Uber issued a bookings growth outlook that surpassed Wall Street's estimates, while its first-quarter profit grew year over year."Uber's pivot from subsidized growth to disciplined, self-funded expansion has driven (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and restructuring) and free cash flow growth ahead of revenue, inflecting (return on capital) from negative levels in 2021 to meaningfully above its cost of capital, and positioning it for compound economic profit through continued reinvestment, share repurchases, and selective (mergers and acquisitions)," Feinseth said Friday.Tigress raised its price target on the Uber stock to $115 from $110 while reiterating its buy rating."We believe further upside in the shares exists, and our 12-month target price of $115 represents a potential return of close to 65% from current levels," Feinseth wrote.The company's shares were down 2% in Friday afternoon trade. So far this year, the stock has lost nearly 17% in value.Price: $68.15, Change: $-1.40, Percent Change: -2.01%

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Buy Opinion On Shares Of Mobileye Global Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lower our 12-month price target by $3 to $10, based on a 2027 P/E of 20x, a steep but justified discount to the stock's five-year average forward P/E of 55x. We increase our 2026 adjusted EPS estimate to $0.35 from $0.25 and maintain 2027's at $0.50. MBLY posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $0.12 vs. $0.08 (+51%), ahead of the $0.09 consensus. The quarter was characterized by stronger-than-expected sales offset by weaker-than-expected margins, as revenue rose 27% to $558M ($38M above consensus) and adjusted gross margin contracted 240 bps to 66% (20 bps below consensus). We thought the quarter underscored the benefit of MBLY's "capex light" business model, which allows it to generate significant FCF even in more challenging market conditions. In our view, sentiment toward the name had become overly bearish (especially considering MBLY's backlog, gross margins, and large net cash position), prompting a significant short squeeze. MBLY's $250M share repurchase announcement was another positive.

Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Mobileye Global (MBLY) posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $0.12 vs. $0.08 (+51%), ahead of the $0.09 consensus. The quarter was characterized by stronger-than-expected sales offset by weaker-than-expected margins, as revenue rose 27% to $558M ($38M above consensus) and adjusted gross margin contracted 240 bps to 66% (20 bps below consensus). EyeQ volumes were up 27% Y/Y, which drove the beat. MBLY raised prior 2026 guidance for revenue and adjusted operating profit to $1.935B-$2.015B and $185M-$235M, respectively, from $1.90B-$1.98B and $170M-$220M.

Prolonged Iran War Could Drive Outlook Cuts at US Auto Companies in 2026 Second Half, RBC Says

US automotive companies could lower outlooks in the second half of this year in case of a prolonged Middle East conflict or if the latest oil price shock "adversely" affects consumer confidence, RBC Capital Markets said in a note e-mailed Monday.The US-Israel war with Iran that started at the end of February has sent energy prices surging amid the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the world's most important chokepoint for crude flows. Oil prices hovered around $100 a barrel intraday Monday as the start of a US blockade of maritime traffic around Iran's ports reportedly became effective.As most auto suppliers typically maintain one to two quarters of inventory, they are likely to be shielded from increasing raw materials costs in the near term, RBC analyst Tom Narayan said in a note to clients, adding that potential cost hikes in the future can be passed along to original equipment manufacturers. Overall, US suppliers have "negligible exposure" to the Middle East, according to the note."Importantly, we think neither OEMs nor suppliers (will) cut guidance in (the first quarter)," Narayan wrote. "That said, if the Iran conflict is prolonged or if higher oil prices adversely impact consumer confidence, we could see guidance cuts in (the second half of 2026)."Last week, a survey by the University of Michigan showed that US consumer sentiment hit the lowest on record this month, reflecting heightened worries about higher prices and the overall economic fallout from the Middle East conflict.Compared with suppliers, US OEMs could face "greater macro sensitivity," considering higher difficulty in passing along commodity inflation costs and a potential delay in the resolution to the US-Mexico-Canada trade pact due to the Iran war, RBC said."In China, the revised subsidy framework and reduction of the EV purchase tax credit could adversely impact mass-market players, where western suppliers remain structurally under-indexed," Narayan said.In the long term, RBC projects Brent crude prices to be around $80 per barrel, with West Texas Intermediate oil seen at $75 a barrel, according to the note."While elevated fuel prices may support (electric vehicle) adoption in Europe, we expect limited mix shift in the US, where government incentives have been the primary demand driver for EV sales," Narayan said.RBC said it likes Autoliv (ALV), Dauch (DCH) and Aptiv (APTV) on a risk/reward basis. The brokerage reduced its price targets on the shares of several companies, including Ford Motor (F), General Motors (GM), Tesla (TSLA), Mobileye Global (MBLY), and Lucid Group (LCID).Earlier this month, Tesla's first-quarter deliveries missed Wall Street's estimates, with Wedbush Securities flagging a challenging demand environment for the EV maker.Price: $12.11, Change: $-0.02, Percent Change: -0.16%
