What happened
Grab (GRAB) stock jumped about 10% to around $3.16 on Tuesday after the company reported record Q3 adjusted EBITDA of $237M and raised its 2026 guidance, with all three core segments profitable. Adjusted EBITDA (profit before certain costs) rose 73% from a year ago. Sales grew 27% to $1.11 billion, beating analyst expectations of $1.05 billion. Grab now expects 2026 adjusted EBITDA of $790–$800 million, up from $720–$740 million. Its loans and payments arm earned a profit for the first time.
Why it matters
Grab's results show a Southeast Asian ride-hailing and food delivery company can now make money in rides, deliveries and financial services at the same time, a long-running worry for investors. Raising its own forecast (guidance) for the second time this year signals profits are growing faster than it expected earlier. The shares are still down about 42% this year, so the jump recovers only part of the earlier drop.
