Factbox: How Uber and Lyft compare on key financial metrics

Uber Technologies Inc’s initial public offering filing on Thursday contains data that will be key to selling itself to investors. The share sale follows a public offering by rival ride-sharing service Lyft Inc last month, whose shares have dropped to about $61 from an IPO price of $72.

Here are how the two companies compare on key metrics from Uber’s filing:

REVENUE

Uber had $11.3 billion in 2018 vs Lyft $2.2 billion.

Uber’s growth has been slowing relative to Lyft due to scandals and aggressive discounting by Lyft.

Lyft’s revenue more than doubled between 2017 and 2018 while Uber’s grew around 41 percent.
