Insights
Q1 Rides and Gross Bookings Growth Exceed
Expects Higher Cash Generation for Full-Year 2024
“Lyft is off to a strong start in 2024. We are executing well and bringing much-needed innovation to the market. That’s why drivers and riders are choosing Lyft more often,” said CEO David Risher. “After a year in the driver’s seat at Lyft I’m thrilled to see all the ways that our customer obsession drives profitable growth.”
“We continue to see demand for our platform increase and our Q1 results reflect this: we delivered strong top-line growth and had our second consecutive quarter of positive free cash flow,” said CFO Erin Brewer. “We've had a solid start to the year and we’re on track to deliver on our full-year financial goals with an improved outlook for our full-year free cash flow.”
First Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:
-
Gross Bookings of
$3.7 billion 21% year-over-year. -
Revenue of
$1.3 billion 28% year-over-year. -
Net loss of
$31.5 million $187.6 million $87.5 million -
Adjusted EBITDA of
$59.4 million $22.7 million 1.6% and compares with0.7% in Q1’23.
First Quarter 2024 Operational Highlights:
-
Rides of 188 million: were up
23% year-over-year, reflecting strong demand across use cases. Growth in early morning, commute and weekend evening trips was particularly strong, which is a continuation of the trends we saw in the back half of 2023. -
Active Riders of 21.9 million: were up
12% year-over-year, reflecting an improvement in rider retention along with an increase in new riders. -
Driver Earnings Commitment: Lyft drivers know they’ll always earn at least
70% of the rider fare each week after external fees. Since the launch in February, drivers’ perceptions of pay fairness have improved significantly, with75% telling us they have a better understanding of their earnings. The data shows our commitment is helping us attract and retain drivers, and increase driver hours. -
Women+ Connect rolled out nationwide: with extremely positive feedback. Women and non-binary driver activations increased by nearly
24% year-over-year in Q1. This has continued to be one of Lyft’s highest-rated features, and most drivers who use it tell us they feel safer while driving with Lyft. -
Bringing people together: is core to Lyft's purpose and exactly what our platform does. On St. Paddy’s Day, we focused on helping people connect and the impact was nearly
20% more rides than the average Sunday in the quarter. And on April 8th for the eclipse, Lyft saw a pop in Scheduled Rides as people headed towards the path of totality. -
Strong growth in
Canada : Over the past year we’ve brought our focus on customer obsession to this market and it’s already producing results. Lyft operates in five of Canada’s largest cities, as well as in about 13 smaller cities. As we’ve begun to apply our customer obsession to those markets, we’ve doubled rides and more than doubled new rider activations and driver hours in Q1 year-on-year. -
Lyft Media: Revenue grew by about
250% year-over-year with about half of our business coming from repeat customers, like NBCUniversal. We’ve also added several new customers including Zillow and Mastercard. And in Q1 we added new partners, including Nielsen and Oracle Advertising – for their ads measurement and data enrichment solution to expand targeting – helping us deliver even more value to our customers.
Second Quarter 2024 Outlook:
-
Gross Bookings of approximately
$4.0 billion $4.1 billion -
Adjusted EBITDA of
$95 million $100 million 2.4% .
FY’24 Directional Commentary: Free Cash Flow Conversion Updated
- Rides growth in the mid-teens year-over-year.
- Gross Bookings growth that is slightly faster than Rides growth year-over-year.
-
Adjusted EBITDA margin (calculated as a percentage of Gross Bookings) of approximately
2.1% . -
We remain on track to generate positive free cash flow for the full year. Given our improved visibility into the first half of the year, we now expect at least
70% of Adjusted EBITDA to convert to free cash flow for the full-year 2024.
Lyft to Host First Investor Day
Lyft will host an Investor Day on June 6, 2024 in
We have not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalent to our non-GAAP outlook or a GAAP reconciliation as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of reconciling items such as stock-based compensation and income tax. Accordingly, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP guidance metrics to their corresponding GAAP equivalent is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that the reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results. We have provided historical reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP metrics in tables at the end of this release.

Note: Information on our key metrics and non-GAAP financial measures is also available on our Investor Relations page.
Definitions of Key Metrics
Gross Bookings
Gross Bookings is a key indicator of the scale and impact of our overall platform. Lyft defines Gross Bookings as the total dollar value of transactions invoiced to rideshare riders including any applicable taxes, tolls and fees excluding tips to drivers. It also includes amounts invoiced for other offerings, including but not limited to: Express Drive vehicle rentals, bike and scooter rentals, and amounts recognized for subscriptions, bike and bike station hardware and software sales, media, sponsorships, partnerships, and licensing and data access agreements.
Adjusted EBITDA margin (calculated as a percentage of Gross Bookings)
Adjusted EBITDA margin (calculated as a percentage of Gross Bookings) is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for a period by Gross Bookings for the same period. For the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.
Rides
Rides represent the level of usage of our multimodal platform. Lyft defines Rides as the total number of rides including rideshare and bike and scooter rides completed using our multimodal platform that contribute to our revenue. These include any Rides taken through our Lyft App. If multiple riders take a private rideshare ride, including situations where one party picks up another party on the way to a destination, or splits the bill, we count this as a single rideshare ride. Each unique segment of a Shared Ride is considered a single Ride. For example, if two riders successfully match in Shared Ride mode and both complete their Rides, we count this as two Rides. We have largely shifted away from Shared Rides, and now only offer Shared Rides in limited markets. Lyft includes all Rides taken by riders via our Concierge offering, even though such riders may be excluded from the definition of Active Riders unless the ride is accessible in that rider’s Lyft App.
Active Riders
The number of Active Riders is a key indicator of the scale of our user community. Lyft defines Active Riders as all riders who take at least one ride during a quarter where the Lyft Platform processes the transaction. An Active Rider is identified by a unique phone number. If a rider has two mobile phone numbers or changed their phone number and that rider took rides using both phone numbers during the quarter, that person would count as two Active Riders. If a rider has a personal and business profile tied to the same mobile phone number, that person would be considered a single Active Rider. If a ride has been requested by an organization using our Concierge offering for the benefit of a rider, we exclude this rider in the calculation of Active Riders, unless the ride is accessible in that rider’s Lyft App.
Webcast
Lyft will host a webcast today at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time) to discuss these financial results and business highlights. To listen to a live audio webcast, please visit our Investor Relations page at https://investor.lyft.com/.

Available Information
Lyft announces material information to the public about Lyft, its products and services and other matters through a variety of means, including filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases, public conference calls, webcasts, the investor relations section of its website (investor.lyft.com), its X accounts (@lyft and @davidrisher), and its blogs (including: lyft.com/blog, lyft.com/hub, and eng.lyft.com) in order to achieve broad, non-exclusionary distribution of information to the public and for complying with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or Lyft's future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements because they contain words such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates,” “going to,” "could," "intends," "target," "projects," "contemplates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern Lyft's expectations, strategy, priorities, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements in this release include, but are not limited to, Lyft’s guidance and outlook, including for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2024, and the trends and assumptions underlying such guidance and outlook, and Lyft’s plans and expectations for fiscal year 2024, including statements about profitable growth. Lyft’s expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize, and actual results in future periods are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including risks related to the macroeconomic environment and risks regarding our ability to forecast our performance due to our limited operating history and the macroeconomic environment. The forward-looking statements contained in this release are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in Lyft's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 that was filed with the SEC on February 20, 2024 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that will be filed with the SEC by May 10, 2024. The forward-looking statements in this release are based on information available to Lyft as of the date hereof, and Lyft disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. This press release discusses "customers." For rideshare, there are two customers in every car - the driver is Lyft's customer, and the rider is the driver's customer. We care about both.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Lyft's financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
Lyft subleases certain office space and earns sublease income. Sublease income is included within other income, net on the condensed consolidated statement of operations, while the related lease expense is included within operating expenses and loss from operations. Lyft believes the adjustment to include sublease income in Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors by enabling them to better assess Lyft’s operating performance, including the benefits of recent transactions, by presenting sublease income as a contra-expense to the related lease charges that are part of operating expenses.
In November 2022 and April 2023, Lyft committed to plans of termination as part of efforts to reduce operating expenses. Lyft believes the costs associated with these restructuring efforts do not reflect performance of Lyft’s ongoing operations. Lyft believes the adjustment to exclude the costs related to restructuring from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is useful to investors by enabling them to better assess Lyft’s ongoing operating performance and provide for better comparability with Lyft’s historically disclosed Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) amounts.
Lyft uses its non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. Free cash flow is a measure used by our management to understand and evaluate our operating performance and trends. We believe free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides our management with information about our ability to generate or use cash to enhance the strength of our balance sheet, further invest in our business and pursue potential strategic initiatives. Free cash flow has certain limitations, including that it does not reflect our future contractual commitments and it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period. Free cash flow does not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs.
Lyft’s definitions may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Furthermore, these measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our consolidated statement of operations that are necessary to run our business. Thus, our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
