Uber Stock’s Q1 Bookings Jump 21% While Free Cash Flow Growth Nearly Stalls

UBER Stock Q1 Earnings in USD (TIKR)

Uber Technologies (UBER) posted 21% gross bookings growth to open 2026, with Mobility accelerating to 20% and Delivery climbing 23% in the quarter reported May 6. The print landed at the high end of guidance despite what CEO Dara Khosrowshahi called a complex backdrop of war and weather.

Beneath the headline number, free cash flow told a quieter story. The $2.29 billion figure grew just 1.6% year over year, a sharp deceleration from the 65% jump booked the quarter before.

Freight also returned to growth for the first time in nearly two years, rounding out a quarter where every segment moved in the same direction. That slowdown came even as membership scaled: Uber One crossed 50 million subscribers, up 50% year over year, alongside more than 10 million drivers and couriers worldwide.

Autonomous partnerships underline that same capital story. Uber now counts more than 30 partners across Mobility and Delivery, with AV Mobility trips up more than tenfold year over year and deployments on track for 15 cities by year-end.

CEO Dara Khosrowshahi addressed the cash picture directly on the Q1 call, tying it to capital returns: “We also generated strong free cash flow and returned a record $3 billion to shareholders through buybacks this quarter.”

That $3 billion buyback pace is only possible because free cash flow has become Uber’s core compounding engine.

At Bernstein’s conference three weeks later, Krishnamurthy said gross bookings had grown 1.7x over the past three years while free cash flow had grown tenfold in that same period. TIKR’s forward estimates show that pattern continuing in fits and starts: free cash flow growth is projected at 24% for the June quarter, near zero by September, then a jump to 64% by June 2027.

Uber is already funneling that cash toward M&A. In late May, the company lifted its Delivery Hero stake to about 37%, agreeing to pay just under €40 a share in a deal that valued the target near €12 billion.

Days later, Uber paused most of its planned European food delivery expansion, a sign the Delivery Hero decision is now shaping the company’s broader growth roadmap.

Wall Street Rates Uber Stock a Buy With a $105 Mean Target

Street Analysts Target for UBER Stock (TIKR)

Uber stock carries a consensus buy rating, with 35 buys, 11 outperforms, 5 holds, 2 no opinions and 1 sell across 54 analysts as of July 7. The mean target sits at $105, implying 41% upside from the current $74 price. That target has stabilized near $104 since March, a cooldown from the $112 peak hit at the end of 2025.

No specific bank action has followed the Delivery Hero stake increase yet, leaving the current target anchored mostly to the core Mobility and Delivery business rather than any acquisition premium.

Wall Street Expects Uber Stock’s Free Cash Flow to Reaccelerate to 64% by 2027

UBER Stock Free Cash Flow Trajectory (TIKR)

Free cash flow came in at $2.29 billion in the March quarter, up 1.6% year over year. TIKR estimates call for $3 billion in June, a 24% increase, before growth flattens at 0% in September.

The estimates then climb 14% by December and 27% by March 2027, before free cash flow reaches $5 billion in June 2027, a 64% surge.

The thesis hinges on that June 2027 print: a 64% jump confirms the compounding story from Bernstein, while a repeat of September’s flat quarter would suggest the slowdown is structural.

TIKR’s Model Values Uber Stock at $157 by 2030

TIKR’s mid-case model values Uber stock at $157 by December 2030, implying a 111% total return from the current price of $74, or 18% annualized over 4.5 years.

That return profile reflects more than one lever: durable bookings growth and a free cash flow base that keeps compounding.

The target looks reachable given the growth already on display: 21% bookings growth and 44% non-GAAP EPS growth, alongside a cash engine management says has grown tenfold over three years while bookings rose just 1.7x over that stretch. Uber One’s climb past 50 million members and the AV network’s expansion toward 15 cities by year-end add durability to that trajectory without leaning on any single number.

The AV push adds a second growth vector beyond the core marketplace, though it remains a small share of total volume today.
