Grab cuts losses by 65% YoY to $342m in Q3

Its loss for Q3 included a $90 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Grab slashed by more than half its loss in the third quarter, its latest financial statement showed.

In Q322, Grab reported a loss of $342m, which is 65% lower than the $988m loss it recorded in Q321.

Its loss for Q322 included a $42 million non-cash expense
from fair value changes on investments, and $90 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

In a bourse filing, the super app attributed the decline in its loss to the elimination of the non-cash interest expense of its convertible redeemable preference shares that converted to ordinary shares in December 2021.

Grab’s revenue likewise improved during the quarter, rising 143% YoY to $382m. Its revenue was driven by the strong growth in its Mobility and Deliveries revenue which grew 101% and 250%, respectively.

“In the quarters ahead, we will continue to focus on cash preservation and cost optimisation as we execute our plans to grow sustainably and drive towards our expectations of 45% - 55% YoY revenue growth in 2023 on a constant currency basis,” said Peter Oey, CFO of Grab.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
