§Winston Score History

The full picture

Uber is a technology company that connects riders with drivers through a smartphone app. Its two main services are ride-hailing, where people pay for a car trip, and Uber Eats, where people order food delivery from local restaurants. Uber operates in over 70 countries and is one of the largest ride-sharing platforms in the world.

Uber makes money by taking a percentage cut from each ride or food delivery completed on its platform, rather than owning the cars or employing the drivers directly. It operates across North America, Europe, Latin America, and parts of Asia, generating roughly $37 billion in annual revenue. Uber's main competitive advantage is its large network — more drivers attract more riders, and more riders attract more drivers — but it faces ongoing pressure from rivals like Lyft and DoorDash, and the long-term rise of autonomous vehicles could either strengthen or seriously disrupt its business model.

Growth + cash flow

Uber Technologies is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 12%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
