Current Liabilities
Current liabilities as a percentage of the total decreased consistently over the period, moving from 23.27% in 2021 to 19.93% in 2025. This decline was driven by reductions in accrued and other current liabilities, which fell from 16.86% to 12.54%, and a decrease in accrued legal, regulatory and non-income taxes from 5.64% to 3.32%. However, the current portion of long-term debt increased significantly in 2024 to 2.24% before becoming unavailable in 2025.
Non-Current Liabilities
Non-current liabilities initially increased from 37.14% in 2021 to a peak of 45.94% in 2022, before decreasing to 34.63% in 2025. Long-term insurance reserves demonstrated a consistent increase, rising from 6.57% to 14.69% over the five-year period. Long-term debt, net of current portion, also increased initially, peaking at 28.85% in 2022, then decreased to 17.02% in 2025. Deferred tax liabilities decreased substantially, falling from 0.94% to 0.05%.
Stockholders’ Equity Components
Additional paid-in capital experienced a substantial decrease, moving from 99.57% in 2021 to 61.65% in 2025. This decrease coincided with a significant reduction in accumulated deficit, which improved from -60.93% to -17.20%. Accumulated other comprehensive loss remained relatively stable, fluctuating between -1.35% and -0.70%. Redeemable non-controlling interests showed a slight increase, from 0.53% to 0.27%.
Specific Liability Accounts
Short-term insurance reserves increased from 3.72% to 5.48%, indicating a growing obligation in this area. Accrued Drivers and Merchants liability also increased initially, peaking at 5.16% in 2023, before decreasing to 2.63% in 2025. The commitment to issue unsecured convertible notes in connection with the Careem acquisition decreased steadily from 0.61% to 0.33% and was not reported after 2023.

In summary, the company demonstrated a shift towards greater reliance on equity financing, with a decreasing proportion of total liabilities and an increasing proportion of stockholders’ equity. Changes within these categories suggest a dynamic liability management strategy and improvements in profitability, reflected in the reduced accumulated deficit.
