third quarter of 2018 as the company faced a third financial quarter in a
row of single-digit gains in bookings and deliveries.
Reuters reports that the company's gross bookings totaled $12.7 billion, up
6 percent from Q2 and an increase of 41 percent from the company's position
at this time in 2017.
“We had another strong quarter for a business of our size and global scope,
” the company's CFO Nelson Chai said, according to the news service.
Chai also touted Uber's “high-potential markets in India and the Middle
East where we continue to solidify our leadership position," according to
Reuters.
The news of Uber's losses come a month after the company was evaluated by
some Wall Street banks at $120 billion ahead of a planned IPO next year.
Uber's CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said in May that the company was "on track" to
go public in 2019, while the $120 billion figure is almost double what the
company was evaluated at earlier this year.
“I do think that we're on track in 2019 for an IPO. Lots of things can
happen in the world but we have a reasonable buffer as well, so I think we'
re in a pretty good spot,” Khosrowshahi said on CNBC in May.
Uber has battled a number of controversies including alleged mistreatment of
women that lead to the ouster of the company's CEO, Travis Kalanick, last
year. | m**********s
