What do the numbers tell us? - Lyft has seen triple-digit revenue growth over the last few years. The company captured $2.2 billion in revenue during fiscal 2018, up 103% from $1.1 billion in 2017. This includes 10 straight quarters of increased revenue per active rider — up from $14.11 in the quarter ended June 30, 2016, to $36.04 in the quarter ended December 31, 2018.
- However, revenue growth is decelerating. Although 103% year-over-year (YoY) growth between 2017 and 2018 is an impressive feat for Lyft, that figure is significantly less than the 209% growth the firm experienced between 2016 and 2017.
- The company isn't profitable, and its losses are climbing. Lyft's losses have risen from $682.8 million in 2016 to $911.3 million in 2018.
- Despite losses, Lyft has made up significant ground on its rivals. Between December 2016 and December 2018, Lyft increased its share of the US ridesharing market from 22% to 39%.
