3 weeks agoDoorDash Shares Plummet Following Q3 Earnings Miss
Revenue climbed 27% year-over-year to $3.45B, clearing the $3.36B consensus estimate by roughly $90M. That growth rate outpaced rival Uber's 18% quarterly expansion, signaling stronger order momentum in the core delivery business. The problem? Earnings per share came in at $0.55, missing the $0.68 estimate by 19%. GAAP net income of $244M also declined sequentially from $285M in Q2, a red flag that profitability may be plateauing after months of steady improvement.
