Uber's gross bookings for its mobility business declined 73% in the second quarter, compared to the same period last year. That number speaks to the magnitude of the challenge Uber has faced during a global pandemic that has made some potential customers fearful of using a ride-hailing service and reduced the need for commuting and business travel, said Dan Ives, a managing director of equity research at Wedbush Securities.
"That number just illustrates, as a data point, just how dark this COVID storm is for a company caught in the middle of it," he said.On an adjusted basis, Uber lost $837 million before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization during the second quarter.
