𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑: My 𝐈𝐏𝐎 valuations in 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟗 of 𝐔𝐛𝐞𝐫 ($38bn = $𝟐𝟏 ps) and 𝐋𝐲𝐟𝐭 ($8bn = $𝟐𝟎 ps) proved to be ~ 𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒕-𝒐𝒏. They priced at $𝟒𝟓 and $𝟕𝟐; opened at $𝟒𝟐 and $𝟖𝟕; and in '𝟐𝟑 hit $𝟐𝟓 and $𝟖: my 𝟏𝟓 years of research paid-off.
🟢 The historical price targets, opinions, and ratings of 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐫-𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐬' analysts prove that 𝟗𝟎% were 𝒘𝒂𝒚-𝒐𝒇𝒇.
Lyft's 𝐂𝐄𝐎 is in over his head: turning around a $𝟓𝐛𝐧 PTC is the 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞 to steering a $𝟏𝟎𝐦𝐧 NPO for 𝟏𝟓 years; his 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫-heralded success at Microsoft and Amazon in 𝐭𝐡𝐞 '𝟗𝟎𝐬 is moot; and the 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 still control the 𝐁𝐎𝐃.
🟢 𝟏𝟎 years in, Lyft has a mere 𝟔𝐦𝐧 MARs; does 𝟐𝐦𝐧 rides a day; and 𝟐𝟐𝐦𝐧 QARs in Q1 '24 is 𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐭 from Q1 '19.

🟢 Scooters and bikes (𝐋𝐢𝐦𝐞, 𝐋𝐲𝐟𝐭, etc.), and seasonality: 𝐂𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐤𝐞's rides per bike in 𝐉𝐚𝐧. '24 was 𝟑𝟐% of 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲 '23.
𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟏: My valuation of 𝐙𝐢𝐩𝐜𝐚𝐫's IPO (𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐰) was $𝟐𝟓𝟎𝐦𝐧 (1X revenue) or $𝟔. ZIP priced at $𝟏𝟖; opened at $𝟑𝟎; never again hit $𝟑𝟎; and hit $𝟔. 𝐀𝐯𝐢𝐬 𝐁𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭 acquired it for $500mn: 𝟏𝟎 years on, Zip 𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒍 has ~12,000 vehicles.
🟢 Enterprise 𝐖𝐞𝐂𝐚𝐫 failed in the 𝐔𝐒: in the 𝐔𝐊, it has ~𝟏,𝟎𝟎𝟎 cars; 𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐂 has ~𝟕𝟓,𝟎𝟎𝟎. Hertz 24/7 closed in '15.
𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟕: I shelved 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐬, a turnkey solution for any 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 or 𝐨𝐫𝐠. to form, launch, run, and grow a car sharing 𝐜𝐨-𝐨𝐩: I am now an expert on 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 and 𝐌𝐚𝐚𝐒 (Moovit, 𝐑𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐕𝐢𝐚), and sharing & gig economies.
