DoorDash's Strong Revenue and Orders Beat Expectations, But Stock Falls
DoorDash beat analysts' estimates for delivery orders in the fourth quarter, with total orders increasing 23% to 574 million and the gross value of those orders jumping 22% to $17.6 billion. However, the stock tumbled as much as 12% in extended trading after the results, as the company's adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of $363 million didn't exceed expectations. DoorDash has been making significant investments to expand into new categories and international markets, with efforts to improve logistics efficiency and drive revenue up 27% in the quarter to $2.3 billion. CEO Tony Xu highlighted the need to improve consumer awareness of DoorDash's non-restaurant delivery services and expand its presence in overseas markets.
