**Q2 2026 10-Q: gross bookings $58.0bn (+24%), revenue $14.2bn (+12%), operating income $1.9bn (+30%). Most of the 77% rise in net income comes from a $1.1bn remeasurement of the Delivery Hero stake and an $899m gain on Aurora, less a $437m loss on Didi. On July 16 Uber agreed to bid €41.50 a share for all of Delivery Hero, targeting closing in the second half of 2027**

Uber (UBER) reported revenue of $14,191m for the second quarter of 2026, up 12% from a year earlier, and operating income of $1,890m. Net income rose 77% to $2,394m — and the other-income table in the 10-Q filed on August 5 shows that the increase came not from operations but from changes in the book value of stakes Uber holds.

## What happened

Uber (UBER) is a ride-hailing and delivery platform.

Its Q2 2026 quarterly report (10-Q) shows gross bookings of **$58,022m**, up 24% from a year earlier, revenue of **$14,191m** (+12%) and operating income of **$1,890m** (+30%). Net income was **$2,394m**, up 77% from $1,355m.

The reason net income grew far faster than operating income is in the other-income table. Q2 **gains on debt and equity securities were +$1,612m** (−$17m a year earlier). According to the company they comprise a **$1.1bn remeasurement gain on the Delivery Hero stake**, an **$899m gain on Aurora**, +$102m on other investments and a **$437m loss on Didi**. That is 49% of pre-tax income of $3,277m.

## FAQ

**Q. What is profit without the valuation gains?**

The 10-Q discloses pre-tax gains on securities of $1,612m separately. Subtracting them from pre-tax income of $3,277m leaves $1,665m, 11% above the $1,504m of a year earlier (a simple subtraction; the after-tax effect is not disclosed). Operating income rose 30%. What this composition means is explained in the subscriber section.

**Q. How will the Delivery Hero acquisition be funded?**

The 10-Q does not say. Cash at June 30 was $4,870m; share repurchases were $3,010m in Q2 and $3,529m in the first half.

**Q. Why did the Didi stake fall?**

Uber values its non-marketable Didi stake using the closing price of Didi ADSs on the over-the-counter market. The carrying value fell from $3,011m at December 31 to $1,900m at June 30, and a $437m loss was recorded in Q2 other income.

**Q. Where can I verify these numbers?**

On SEC EDGAR: Uber's Q2 2026 Form 10-Q (accession 0001543151-26-000032), the other-income components table, the investments note, the equity-method (Delivery Hero) note, subsequent events and the MD&A key metrics.
