--- title: "Uber Industry Context" description: "Industry Context for Uber (UBER)." canonical: https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/uber/industry-context/ source: "Swoopr Investment: https://www.getswoopr.com" --- **Direct answer:** This research guide covers industry context analysis for Uber Industry Context using primary SEC filings as the source of record. Each section identifies what to verify, where to find it, and why it matters to an investment decision. Figures must be confirmed against current filings before use. # Uber Industry Context ## How Does Uber Technologies, Inc Sit in Its SEC Industry Classification? Uber Technologies, Inc files under SEC standard industrial classification 7389, Services-Business Services, NEC. Among the 62 companies Swoopr covers under SIC 7389, its latest reported revenue of $52.0 billion ranks 3rd. The comparison uses each company's own latest fiscal year, which can differ by up to a year across the group. | Measure | Uber Technologies, Inc (FY2025) | Peer reference | | --- | --- | --- | | Revenue | $52.0 billion | 3rd of 62 | | Operating margin | 10.7% | 19.9% (median of 8 peers with a quarter to four times its revenue) | | Revenue growth | +18.3% | +12.9% (median of 8 peers with a quarter to four times its revenue) | Companies of similar size in the same classification: [PDD Holdings Inc.](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/pdd-holdings/) ($61.8 billion), [VISA INC.](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/visa-inc/) ($40.0 billion), [Accenture plc](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/accenture/) ($69.7 billion), [PayPal Holdings, Inc.](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/paypal/) ($33.2 billion), [Mastercard Inc](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/mastercard/) ($32.8 billion). A classification code groups companies by how they describe their main business to the SEC, so two companies with the same code can still differ in customers, geography and cost structure. Treat the comparison as a starting point for the questions below. ## Where value can be captured Industrial value chains connect raw materials and components to manufacturing, distribution, installation, operation, maintenance, and replacement. Aftermarket service and mission-critical installed bases can produce economics very different from one-time equipment sales. For Uber, name suppliers, channels, customers and infrastructure dependencies only when a reliable source establishes the relationship. The goal is to show where the company sits, what it depends on, and where bargaining power resides. ## Industry drivers - Orders: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. - Backlog: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. - Unit Volume: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. - Price Realization: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. - Capacity Utilization: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. - Aftermarket Or Service Revenue: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. - Project Execution: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. - Input Costs: connect this driver to a disclosed KPI and to the financial statement line it influences. ## Macro connections - Industrial Production: document the transmission mechanism rather than assuming correlation. - Pmis: document the transmission mechanism rather than assuming correlation. - Construction Spending: document the transmission mechanism rather than assuming correlation. - Freight Volumes: document the transmission mechanism rather than assuming correlation. - Air Travel Where Relevant: document the transmission mechanism rather than assuming correlation. - Government Infrastructure Spending: document the transmission mechanism rather than assuming correlation. ## Peer map A starting peer group from the current S&P 500 classification is **3M, A. O. Smith, Allegion, Ametek, Automatic Data Processing, Axon Enterprise**. Some may be adjacent rather than direct competitors. The latest Uber filing and credible industry sources should refine the map. ## Questions for the supply-chain map - Which inputs are scarce, concentrated, regulated, or difficult to substitute? - Which layer has the highest switching costs? - Where can capacity expand quickly, and where does it take years? - Which participants bear inventory, credit, commodity, or utilization risk? - Is Uber's advantage located in intellectual property, physical assets, licenses, distribution, brand, data, or customer integration? - Which dependency could become a bottleneck under stress? ## References The evergreen analysis above is anchored to verified index metadata and a filing-first research workflow.
