Grab posts $20m profit in Q2

Revenue also rose 23% YoY to $819m.

Grab Holdings Limited reported a $20m profit for the second quarter ended 30 June 2025, a $89m improvement year-over-year.

The growth was driven by strong operating performance and lower finance costs. Higher income tax expenses partially offset the gains.

The group's revenue also rose 23% YoY to $819m, or 19% on a constant currency basis. Growth was led by the on-demand and financial services segments.

On-demand GMV also grew 21% YoY (18% constant currency) to $5.4b, supported by a 15% increase in monthly transacting users and a 23% rise in transactions.

Anthony Tan, group chief executive officer and co-founder of Grab, said the company is seeing “profitable growth at scale” and highlighted 46 million monthly users and 14 straight quarters of adjusted EBITDA growth.

Peter Oey, chief financial officer of Grab, pointed to continued cost discipline and the successful issuance of $1.5b in zero coupon convertible notes, which strengthens the company’s balance sheet.

The company said it will continue focusing on product innovation, user engagement, and capital discipline to sustain momentum.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
