Janus Henderson Investors Global Sustainable Equity Fund stated the following regarding Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:UBER) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:
“The largest individual detractors included Spotify, Arthur J Gallagher, and Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:UBER). Shares in Uber suffered from negative sentiment from the accelerating shift towards autonomous vehicles and the potential entry of Amazon into rapid grocery delivery. Despite these risks, the company continues to deliver strong quarterly results and generate healthy free cash flow. As the leading ride-sharing platform globally, Uber continues to have solid fundamentals. Uber’s ride-sharing products allow riders to reduce their travel costs while driving higher utilization of vehicles, fueling a circular-economy dynamic – i.e., a dynamic system aiming to eliminate waste by keeping products and materials in use through reuse, repair, refurbishment, and recycling.”
