Bookings set the immediate bar

Management expects third-quarter gross bookings of 58.25 billion to 60.25 billion US dollars. The range implies continued expansion from the second quarter, when gross bookings reached 58 billion US dollars and grew 24 percent year over year, according to TipRanks.

Wall Street expects Uber to report earnings of 0.86 US dollars per share, down from 3.11 US dollars in the year-ago quarter. Revenue is forecast to rise 9 percent to 14.66 billion US dollars. Bank of America analyst Justin Post expects bookings of 59.78 billion US dollars and adjusted earnings of 0.91 US dollars per share, close to or above the broader market view.

Options signal a volatile reaction

Options traders are pricing in a 7.8 percent move in either direction after the release. TipRanks said the implied range corresponds to a 5.19 US dollar move from Uber's November 2 closing price of 66.71 US dollars, putting the potential post-earnings range at 61.52 to 71.90 US dollars. The stock moved between a 2.03 percent decline and a 3.36 percent gain after its last four quarterly reports and rose after two of them.

The setup leaves the earnings call as the next major test for Uber's growth and margin profile. Investors will be watching whether bookings land near the middle of the guided range, how profitability develops and whether management offers fresh detail on autonomous-vehicle partnerships and competitive pressure.
