Uber's latest Q4 '23 reported trip volume was 2.60B. The implied ~1.5% sequential growth from Q3 '23 to Q4 '23 puts projected Q1 '24 throughput around 2.64B. A 4B Q1 figure necessitates an unprecedented ~53% QoQ surge, completely unaligned with historical operational leverage or market saturation metrics. This target is fundamentally mispriced. 99% NO — invalid if Uber reports a major mobility platform acquisition exceeding 1.3B quarterly trips, effective Q1.
