Mobility Segment Profit Margin
The Mobility segment exhibits a consistently positive and upward trend in profit margin from 2020 through 2024. Starting at 19.2% in 2020, the margin improved steadily each year, reaching 25.9% in 2024. This indicates ongoing enhancement in profitability and operational efficiency within this segment over the five-year period.
Delivery Segment Profit Margin
The Delivery segment shows a marked improvement in profitability from 2020 to 2024. Initially, the segment reported a significant loss margin of -22.36% in 2020. However, there is a consistent year-over-year reduction in losses, transitioning to a positive margin starting in 2022 with 5.05%. The upward trajectory continues to 17.97% in 2024, highlighting a strong turnaround and increased profitability in this business area.
Freight Segment Profit Margin
The Freight segment profit margin has remained negative throughout the observed years with some fluctuations. In 2020 and 2021, the segment experienced losses of -22.45% and -6.1%, respectively, showing a reduction in losses. Data for 2022 is missing, making assessment for that year incomplete. However, the margin worsened slightly in 2023 and 2024 to -1.22% and -1.44%, respectively. Despite the overall negative margins, the losses are considerably less severe compared to earlier years, though the lack of consistent positive progression suggests ongoing challenges in achieving profitability for this segment.

The financial performance of the Mobility reportable segment reveals a consistent upward trend across all key metrics over the observed five-year period.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA shows a strong and steady increase, rising from US$1,169 million in 2020 to US$6,497 million in 2024. This growth indicates progressive improvements in operating profitability within the segment, with the value nearly quintupling over the period. The increase suggests effective cost management and expanding operational scale.
Revenue
Revenue demonstrates substantial expansion, increasing from US$6,089 million in 2020 to US$25,087 million in 2024. The near fourfold growth reflects robust demand and successful scaling of the Mobility service offerings. Notably, revenue more than doubled between 2021 and 2022, suggesting significant business acceleration during that period.
Segment Profit Margin
The segment profit margin has shown a gradual but consistent improvement, moving from 19.2% in 2020 to 25.9% in 2024. This indicates enhanced profitability on a relative basis, as the segment is able to generate higher profit per unit of revenue over time, likely through operational efficiencies, pricing strategies, or a more favorable cost structure.

Overall, the data reflect strong growth in both absolute profitability and revenue levels, accompanied by improving profit margins. These trends suggest a maturing business segment capable of scaling effectively while enhancing profitability.

1 2024 Calculation
Segment profit margin = 100 × Adjusted EBITDA ÷ Revenue
= 100 × ÷ =


The financial performance of the Delivery segment has shown significant improvement over the analyzed period. Revenue has consistently increased each year, reflecting robust growth in the segment's market activities. Starting from US$ 3,904 million in 2020, revenue more than tripled by 2024, reaching US$ 13,750 million. This upward trend indicates expanding customer demand and possibly enhanced operational capabilities or market penetration.

Correspondingly, the Adjusted EBITDA figures reveal a marked turnaround. The segment experienced negative Adjusted EBITDA in 2020 and 2021, with losses narrowing from -US$ 873 million to -US$ 348 million. However, from 2022 onward, the segment transitioned into profitability, achieving US$ 551 million in Adjusted EBITDA. This positive momentum accelerated through 2023 and 2024, with Adjusted EBITDA reaching US$ 1,506 million and US$ 2,471 million respectively. This shift reflects improved operational efficiency and cost management, complementing the revenue growth.

The segment profit margin further corroborates these observations. It progressed from a substantial negative margin of -22.36% in 2020 to a positive margin of 17.97% by 2024. The consistent increase in profit margin demonstrates enhanced profitability and suggests that fixed and variable costs have been better controlled relative to revenue expansion.

Overall, the Delivery segment exhibits a strong growth trajectory with significant operational improvements translating into enhanced profit margins and positive Adjusted EBITDA. The data implies successful execution of strategic initiatives focusing on sustainable profitability and scale expansion within this business segment.

Segment profit margin = 100 × Adjusted EBITDA ÷ Revenue
= 100 × ÷ =


Revenue
The revenue demonstrated significant growth from 2020 to 2022, increasing from $1,011 million in 2020 to $6,947 million in 2022. However, there was a noticeable decline in revenue in 2023 and 2024, falling to $5,245 million and $5,141 million respectively. Despite the dip in the last two years, the revenue levels in 2023 and 2024 remained substantially higher than the initial figures in 2020 and 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA figures presented continuous improvement from 2020 through 2023. The negative values decreased from -$227 million in 2020 to -$64 million in 2023, indicating a reduction in losses over this period. In 2024, there was a slight increase in losses to -$74 million, but overall, Adjusted EBITDA shows a trend toward narrowing the gap between expenses and earnings.
Segment Profit Margin
The segment profit margin improved markedly from -22.45% in 2020 to -6.1% in 2021, reflecting better operational efficiency or cost management. This improving trend continued toward 2023, with the margin reaching -1.22%. There was a marginal reversal in 2024, with the margin slightly declining to -1.44%. Despite being negative across all years, the profit margin has moved closer to break-even over time.
Summary
Overall, the data exhibits strong revenue growth until 2022 followed by a moderate decline in subsequent years. While the segment remains unprofitable, there is a clear trend toward reducing losses and improving profitability as indicated by both Adjusted EBITDA and segment profit margin trends. The slight deterioration in 2024 suggests some challenges remain, but the overall direction shows progress in managing the segment's cost structure in relation to its revenues.
