Uber Technologies, Inc. (UBER) shares closed down 1.7% at $69.99 on Friday, with about 26.5 million shares changing hands. The stock is down about 6% from its Feb. 6 close and remains well below its 52-week high of $101.99. (Investing)

A prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday showed Uber registered an array of securities — including common stock and debt — that it or existing holders could sell from time to time. The automatic shelf registration carries no stated cap, a structure that can let a large issuer tap markets quickly, though it does not by itself mean a sale is coming. (SEC)
Uber also filed its annual report on Form 10-K, showing overall gross bookings — the total value of rides and orders before paying drivers and couriers — rose 19% in 2025 while revenue increased 18% to $52.0 billion. Adjusted EBITDA, a profit measure that strips out interest, taxes and some one-off items, was $8.73 billion; the Uber One membership base reached 46 million, the filing showed. Uber said it had $19.2 billion available under its share repurchase program, and flagged worker classification and other regulatory disputes as recurring risks. (SEC)
Uber said Chief Financial Officer Prashanth Mahendra-Rajah will step down on Feb. 16, with Balaji Krishnamurthy, a former head of investor relations, taking over. CEO Dara Khosrowshahi called Mahendra-Rajah “a great partner” and said Krishnamurthy is “trusted by investors.” Krishnamurthy said: “It’s an honor to step into this important role at such an important time for Uber.” (SEC)
Uber agreed this week to acquire the delivery arm of Turkey’s Getir for $335 million in cash and to invest $100 million for a 15% stake in Getir’s remaining delivery services, Reuters reported. Uber said the plan is to combine elements of Getir and its Trendyol GO business to “support the continued growth of a vibrant and competitive ecosystem.” (Reuters)
Uber and China’s Baidu said they would launch autonomous ride-hailing in Dubai in the coming month, starting in parts of the Jumeirah area, with expansion tied to regulatory approvals. The companies said riders would be able to opt into Baidu’s Apollo Go robotaxis through the Uber app. (Reuters)
Lyft’s shares tumbled earlier this week after the company flagged weaker ride growth and a softer near-term profit outlook, keeping the sector on edge. Evercore ISI analyst Mark Mahaney said Lyft needs to “execute on its premiumization strategy” as it scales new services and autonomous-vehicle bets. (Reuters)
But shelf registrations can still unsettle investors if they are read as a prelude to a stock sale or more borrowing, especially after a down week. Delays tied to approvals in new markets, or higher insurance and labor costs, can also squeeze margins.
With U.S. markets closed on Monday, Uber stock will next trade on Tuesday, Feb. 17, when investors can react to the filing and the CFO handover. Traders will watch for any follow-on financing under the new shelf and for updates tied to regulatory approvals and rollout timelines.
