thats 3.5 year old data (data started in FY Sept 2014) in a hugely changing and dynamic market, so basically not useful.

I work at Uber. We have publicly released financial statements each quarter. For q4 last year, our rides business was contribution margin positive (aka, it makes money). What loses money for us is R + D, and growth in new products (freight, eats, etc)

I notice you don't actually provide actual data to make a point. Which destroys your argument.

41% is such a ludicrously large way from 110% you need some real data to back it up. Further pretending the start date is means the data is a full year older is silly. At best you can have 2 more years of fiscal data.
