Grab narrows 1Q24 losses by 54% YoY, boosts FY24 earnings outlook

Loss for the period was US$115m.

Grab raised its earnings forecast for FY24 after narrowing its losses by 54% YoY to US$115m in 1Q24.

In its latest financial statement, Grab said it now expects to record adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) between US$250m-$270m, higher than its previous forecast of US$180m-US$200m.

Grab kept its revenue forecast at US$2.70b-US$2.75b.

The company said it cut its losses for the quarter by US$134m due to improvements in the group's adjusted EBITA and reductions in net interest expenses and share-based compensation expenses.

Loss for the quarter included a US$31m foreign exchange loss and US$94m in non-cash share-based compensation expenses.

Group adjusted EBITDA for 1Q24 was US$62m, an improvement of US$129m YoY, driven by On-Demand gross merchandise value (GMV)  and revenue growths.

On-Demand GMV rose 18% YoY to US$4.2b, whilst revenue grew 24% YoY to US$653m.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
