In the first nine months of 2019, the company recorded losses amounting to 7,410 million dollars, compared to the net attributable profit of 1,884 million dollars in the same period of the previous year.

The revenues of the platform between the months of January and September increased 21.5% annually, to 10,078 million dollars, while the costs and expenses of the company grew 72.3%, to 17,703 million dollars.

In the third quarter, Uber recorded losses of 1,162 million dollars, thus raising by 17.8% the ‘red numbers’ recorded in the same period of 2018.
