Uber Viewed as Undervalued as Investors Seek Growth, Returns, Oppenheimer Says

Uber Technologies (UBER) shares appear undervalued as investors look for growth, free cash flow and returns on investment, Oppenheimer said Wednesday in a report.Uber's broad network and logistics technology offer an advantage in gaining additional market share in ride-hailing service and online food delivery, areas that still have substantial room for global expansion, the report said.Potential near-term catalysts include expansion into new markets, improvements in freight, new transportation solutions, growth in subscription products, and progress in autonomous technology, Oppenheimer said.Uber trades at 11 times its projected 2027 free cash flow, or 22% below peer averages, even after factoring in $1 billion of additional robotaxi capital spending, the report said.Oppenheimer has an outperform rating on Uber stock and a $100 price target.Price: $69.37, Change: $-1.83, Percent Change: -2.57%

Update: Uber, Lyft Granted Preliminary Injunction Blocking New York City Law Against 'Wrongful Deactivations' of Drivers

(Updates with Uber's response in the fifth paragraph.)Uber Technologies (UBER) and Lyft (LYFT) were granted a preliminary injunction by US District Judge Gregory Woods on Wednesday, blocking a recently enacted New York City law protecting ride-share drivers from "wrongful deactivations."Judge Woods said that each company's agreements with drivers conferred broad authority over platform access, including the right to deactivate a driver without advance notice, which Uber and Lyft use to police the safety of their platforms and their passengers, according to court documents.While the New York City Council law takes into account the hardships that wrongful deactivation imposes on drivers, it does not consider the law's effects on the broader citizenry of the city, whose safety depends in part on swift deactivation of drivers accused of assault, fraud or dangerous conduct, the court order said.A Lyft spokesman toldin an email that the company was "pleased the court recognized the serious safety concerns at the heart of this challenge. Lyft's ability to protect riders is a top priority. We now look forward to making our full case."An Uber spokesperson toldthat the court's opinion underscores that driver fairness and rider safety can and must go hand in hand.Price: $70.85, Change: $-0.70, Percent Change: -0.99%

Uber Technologies' Delivery Hero Deal Could Boost Growth, Profit, UBS Says

Uber Technologies' (UBER) planned Delivery Hero purchase could expand its delivery business, deliver more than $1.2 billion in yearly savings, improve margins after closing and lift earnings, though regulatory approval remains the main risk, UBS said in a note emailed Friday.UBS said Uber has a strong chance of gaining control of Delivery Hero because Prosus plans to sell its stake and Delivery Hero's board supports the offer.The firm said the deal could increase Uber's user base by about 25% and gross bookings by about 22%, strengthening its position against DoorDash (DASH) and other delivery platforms.Uber's $1.2 billion annual savings target appears achievable and may be conservative, helped by combining platforms, removing repeated costs and selling more services to existing customers, while Delivery Hero's Talabat business, planned asset sales and further cost cuts should help Uber recover margins quickly after the deal closes, the firm said.The transaction could add to adjusted earnings per share after its expected closing in H2 2027 and raise adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization by a high-single-digit percentage by the third year, according to the note.UBS kept Uber's buy rating and $110 price target.Price: $71.77, Change: $-2.27, Percent Change: -3.07%

Uber Technologies' Delivery Hero Deal Could Deliver More Value Than Initial Synergy Estimates, RBC Says

Uber Technologies' (UBER) acquisition of Delivery Hero could create more value than management's initial projections, with several revenue and cost opportunities not reflected in the company's estimated $1.2 billion in annual run-rate synergies, RBC Capital said in a note emailed Friday.The analyst said the deal expands Uber's delivery presence to 99 markets and offers upside through greater cross-platform use of its mobility and delivery services, with management's synergy estimates remaining conservative.RBC said the acquisition could drive additional growth through advertising, quick commerce, marketplace optimization and merchant-funded offers.Uber is expected to shift its capital allocation toward share repurchases after completing the acquisition, the report added.RBC maintained its outperform rating on the stock and its price target of $105.Uber Technologies shares were down 2.4% in Friday trading.Price: $72.35, Change: $-1.69, Percent Change: -2.28%
