According to Bloomberg, Grab Holdings’s price has been cut by more than half since the beginning of 2022, and yet the company continues to “splurge” on subsidies. In its quarterly report released on March 3, 2022, Grab Holdings mentioned that it had invested heavily in bumping incentives to bring in drivers as pandemic threats eased and the demand for ride-shares grew. According to The Motley Fool, Partner and Consumer incentives rose by 15% and 73% year over year, respectively. But despite Grab’s optimistic forecast following the company’s IPO in December 2021, revenue plummeted 44% to $122 million in their fourth quarter, widening its losses to $1.1 billion–much higher than its $635 million loss a year prior.
According to CNBC, Grab poured a large amount of money into incentives to maintain its market leader position, and to bring in drivers to “[catch] up in terms of supply.” However, as more people began to dine out more and more as the threat from COVID lessened, demand for food delivery services dropped and revenue from Grab’s delivery unit plummeted 98%. Revenue from its mobility unit—which was accountable for 85% of overall sales—declined 27% in its fourth quarter alone.
Previously, Grab Holdings had gone public in December 2021 via a SPAC merger with Altimeter Growth Corp.
