Deep Dive Into Lyft Stock: Analyst Perspectives (23 Ratings)

BofA Securities analyst Michael McGovern downgraded&nbsp;&nbsp;Lyft, Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) rating to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LYFT/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Underperform from Buy</a> and cut the price forecast to $10.50 from $17.50 on Thursday.
The stock is trading lower on Thursday. The rerating reflects the substantial autonomous vehicle risk, especially Waymo&#8217;s rapid expansion in San Francisco and Los Angeles, and the lack of scalable autonomous vehicle partnerships that are launching in the near-term for Lyft.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42859391/uber-and-lyft-adapt-robotaxi-strategy-to-compete-in-tesla-and-waymos-market" rel="noreferrer noopener">Uber and Lyft Adapt Robotaxi Strategy to Compete in Tesla and Waymo&#8217;s Space</a>
McGovern noted Lyft&#8217;s long-term potential in the autonomous vehicle ecosystem, but given its still-nascent partnerships, the analyst lost confidence in the near-term upside.
Lyft is well positioned with 20 million users, growing 10%, plus solid ride frequency. Still, recent pricing headwinds likely impact margins, as data from Bloomberg Second Measure suggests that the average transaction value was still down in March.
McGovern initiated Lyft at Underperform in 2022 and upgraded to Buy post its 2024 Analyst Day on the expectation that Lyft could limit share loss and strengthen margins. The long-term margin outlook seemed conservative compared to Uber Technologies, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>).
Results have been mixed, with recent bookings and margin softness suggesting growth may need to reaccelerate and incremental margins improve to meet the analyst day guide.
Lyft is more exposed to Waymo versus Uber, likely generating 20%+ of bookings in California, versus Uber at less than 10%.
McGovern noted that Waymo could launch rides to San Francisco International Airport (SFO) this year or next, which would be a significant negative catalyst.
Waymo is also testing and launching other cities, but San Francisco and Los Angeles are significant for Lyft given its higher West Coast mix.
Waymo still only has 50% utilization, which could lend itself to expanded partnerships. However, with Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) launching in Texas and California, autonomous vehicle competition could grow and drive additional pricing pressure.
For fiscal 2025, McGovern reduced bookings by 2% on lower Bookings per Ride. The analyst projected $491 million for EBITDA versus $547 million prior (now below Street at $501 million in fiscal 2025 EBITDA).
Price Action: LYFT stock is down 11.10% at $11.51 at the last check on Thursday.

Lyft Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) shares are trading higher Wednesday following reports that activist investor Engine Capital has taken a stake in the company and is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LYFT/analyst-ratings">pushing for a strategic review</a>.
What To Know: According to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-25/engine-capital-said-to-push-for-strategic-review-of-lyft">Bloomberg</a>, the investment firm has acquired about a 1% stake, valued at approximately $50 million and has been engaging with Lyft management to express concerns over the company's stock performance, strategic direction, and corporate governance.
Engine Capital is urging Lyft to conduct a strategic review, improve capital allocation, and eliminate its dual-class share structure, which currently gives co-founders disproportionate control. Initial reports mistakenly suggested Engine Capital's stake was $500 million, but that figure has since been corrected.
Lyft has struggled over the past year, with its stock losing more than a third of its value, leaving the company with a market capitalization of around $5.4 billion. Investors remain skeptical about the long-term viability of Lyft's business model, particularly as autonomous vehicle technology advances. Unlike its chief competitor, Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), which has a global footprint and diversified revenue streams, Lyft operates solely in the US and Canada, making it more vulnerable to domestic competition and shifts in the transportation industry.
Lyft has not yet commented on the reports and Engine Capital has declined to provide further details. 
LYFT Price Action: Lyft shares were up 2.29% at $12.50 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

<h2>Delving into Lyft's Background</h2>
Lyft is the second-largest ride-sharing service provider in the us and Canada, connecting riders and drivers over the Lyft app. Incorporated in 2013 and public since 2019, Lyft offers a variety of rides via private vehicles, including traditional private rides, shared rides, and luxury ones. Besides ride-share, Lyft has entered the bike- and scooter-share market to bring multimodal transportation options to users.
<h3>Financial Milestones: Lyft's Journey</h3>
Market Capitalization Analysis: Reflecting a smaller scale, the company's market capitalization is positioned below industry averages. This could be attributed to factors such as growth expectations or operational capacity.
Revenue Growth: Lyft's remarkable performance in 3 months is evident. As of 31 December, 2024, the company achieved an impressive revenue growth rate of 26.6%. This signifies a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. In comparison to its industry peers, the company stands out with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Industrials sector.
Net Margin: Lyft's net margin is below industry averages, indicating potential challenges in maintaining strong profitability. With a net margin of 3.98%, the company may face hurdles in effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): Lyft's ROE surpasses industry standards, highlighting the company's exceptional financial performance. With an impressive 8.68% ROE, the company effectively utilizes shareholder equity capital.
Return on Assets (ROA): Lyft's ROA falls below industry averages, indicating challenges in efficiently utilizing assets. With an ROA of 1.15%, the company may face hurdles in generating optimal returns from its assets.
Debt Management: Lyft's debt-to-equity ratio is below the industry average at 1.53, reflecting a lower dependency on debt financing and a more conservative financial approach.
<h2>Analyst Ratings: Simplified</h2>
Analysts are specialists within banking and financial systems that typically report for specific stocks or within defined sectors. These people research company financial statements, sit in conference calls and meetings, and speak with relevant insiders to determine what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts will rate each stock once a quarter. 
Beyond their standard evaluations, some analysts contribute predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, furnishing investors with additional guidance. Users of analyst ratings should be mindful that this specialized advice is shaped by human perspectives and may be subject to variability.

RBC Capital Reiterates Outperform on Lyft, Maintains $21 Price Target

Lyft's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NYSE">LYFT</a>) short percent of float has fallen 12.37% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 43.25 million shares sold short, which is 12.4% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.05 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Lyft has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Lyft's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Lyft's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.56%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Is The Market Feeling About Lyft?

<a href="https://www.theinformation.com/articles/investors-should-buy-the-dip-ride-the-lyft">https://www.theinformation.com/articles/investors-should-buy-the-dip-ride-the-lyft</a>
Lyft and Uber have finally become profitable. For every ride hailed on Lyft, the company now earns 2.4% before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, whereas it lost money on bookings each year before 2023. Lyft has grown while generating an increasing amount of cash. Last year that number was $766 million.

"Investors Should Buy the Dip, Ride the Lyft" - The Information

Sometimes, you look at a wildly successful company, and it just clicks—of course, it works, and of course, it made millions. But hindsight is always 20/20. The real challenge? Spotting that golden opportunity when it's just an idea on paper and your own money is at stake.
Mark Cuban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43885487/billionaire-mark-cuban-said-the-first-step-to-getting-rich-is-giving-things-up-drink-water-eat-mac-and-cheese-and-save-every-penny">has built a fortune</a> on his ability to see potential early. He became a billionaire after selling Broadcast.com to Yahoo for $5.7 billion in 1999, later parlaying that wealth into everything from owning the Dallas Mavericks to becoming a fan-favorite investor on "Shark Tank." But even billionaires don't bat a thousand.
For Cuban, one of his biggest financial missteps was passing on an early investment in Uber (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) —a decision that cost him billions.

</ul>
The $250,000 That Could Have Turned Into $4.12 Billion
Back in 2009, Uber co-founder Travis Kalanick approached Cuban with a chance to invest in the then-fledgling ride-sharing startup. The valuation? $10 million.
"Just think: If I would've given him $250,000 on a [$10 million] valuation, it'd be billions," Cuban said during an <a href="https://www.peacocktv.com/watch-online/tv/hart-to-heart/6188944115208130112/seasons/3/episodes/mark-cuban-episode-6/5acb7c01-0eff-33d1-8121-c542ab5bacb8">appearance on Kevin Hart's "Hart to Heart</a>."
And he's not wrong. If Cuban had invested $250,000 for a 2.5% stake in Uber at a $10 million valuation, that stake would have been worth $2.05 billion when Uber went public in May 2019 at an $82 billion valuation.
That means Cuban missed out on a 819,900% return. Now, nearly six years later it's even more of a sting.&nbsp;
His shares would be worth $4.12 billion today, based on Uber's $165 billion market capitalization as of this month 2025.
The return on investment would be approximately 1,647,900%.&nbsp;
"I mean, I've done OK. But, still," said Cuban, whose net worth sits at an estimated $5.7 billion.
Trending: These five entrepreneurs are worth $223 billion –<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-homes-private-credit-fund"> they all believe in one platform that offers a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends</a>
A History With Kalanick—And a Price That Didn't Feel Right
Cuban wasn't a stranger to Kalanick at the time. In 2005, he had invested $1.7 million in Kalanick's previous venture, Red Swoosh, a peer-to-peer networking startup. <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/19/mark-cuban-passed-on-uber-stake-that-would-be-worth-2point3-billion-now.html">According to&nbsp; CNBC in 2023</a>, that bet paid off—when Kalanick sold the company to Akamai Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AKAM#NASDAQ">AKAM</a>) in 2007 for $18.7 million, Cuban saw a small but profitable return.
So when Kalanick pitched Uber, Cuban was intrigued.
"He comes to me, like, first off [and says]: ‘I've got this thing. It's going to replace taxi cabs&#8230;'" Cuban recalled. "I was like, ‘I love it.'"
But then came the valuation.
Cuban balked at the $10 million price tag. "I said, ‘I'll do it at [a] $5 million valuation&#8230;' for Uber!" he told CNBC.
That counteroffer didn't go over well. "[Kalanick] never came back to me. He got somebody else. Whoops," Cuban admitted.
Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/boxabl"> you can become an investor for $0.80 per share today.</a>
Even Kevin Hart Missed Out
Turns out, Cuban wasn't the only one who failed to see Uber's potential. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43496334/sounds-like-murderville-both-mark-cuban-and-kevin-hart-passed-on-a-startup-that-grew-into-a-giant-leaving-them-regretting-it">Hart also had a shot</a> at investing but turned it down for an even simpler reason—it just sounded ridiculous.
Hart recalled that Uber investor and music manager Troy Carter tried to get him in early, but the idea of sharing a ride with strangers seemed absurd. "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43496334/sounds-like-murderville-both-mark-cuban-and-kevin-hart-passed-on-a-startup-that-grew-into-a-giant-leaving-them-regretting-it">Sounds like Murderville</a>," he said.
That skepticism cost him—big time. Hart estimated that his would-be investment of up to $75,000 could have netted him "$100-plus million" if he had jumped in.
Learning From the Mistake
Cuban didn't just turn down Uber—he also warned Kalanick about the roadblocks ahead. He correctly predicted that the company would face regulatory nightmares and resistance from taxi commissions trying to shut it down.
But missing out on Uber taught him a lesson: sometimes, gut instinct and early adoption matter more than haggling over valuation. And this time, he wasn't going to let an opportunity pass him by.
Cuban on <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/mcuban.bsky.social/post/3lijrc2clvs2q">shared on BlueSky</a> on Feb. 19 that he found his latest investment, Fetii, through an unexpected source—his daughter. "My daughter used Fetii nonstop with her friends and raved about it," Cuban said. "She told me I should invest. So I reached out to Matthew, and the more I heard about it, the more I liked it." Matthew is Fetti's co-founder and CEO.&nbsp;
See Also: How do billionaires pay less in income tax than you?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/tax-deferring-adv"> Tax deferring is their number one strategy</a>.
Fetii, a Texas-based group rideshare startup, is tackling a problem that Uber and Lyft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) have never solved—how to transport large groups efficiently without the hassle of splitting into multiple cars. The company, founded in 2020, has already expanded to 68 cities across six states and moves over 200,000 passengers per month. Its seamless <a href="https://media.hubtas.com/2025/02/19/mark-cuban-invests-in-fetii-the-group-rideshare-app-solving-uber-and-lyfts-biggest-flaw-after-his-daughter-raved-about-it-she-told-me-i-should-invest/">QR code-based payment system</a> and $5-per-person fare structure have made it a favorite among college students.
Cuban's $7.35 million investment in Fetii, alongside Y Combinator and Goodwater Capital, proves he's serious about not making the same mistake twice.
At SXSW in 2017, he made it clear: "If you really believe and you really have something that you think is going to disrupt the world, bring it to me," he said. "I won't make the same mistake twice."
