The company has achieved profitability with TTM net income of $379.0 million, demonstrating the scalability of its diversified service model across a rapidly growing region.

What this transaction means for investors
At first glance, it appears CEO Tan made a major move by selling most of his Class A GRAB stock. However, not only was this sale a pre-planned arrangement, but Tan also retains a roughly 3.7% stake in Grab through its Class B shares and holds majority voting power. Simply put, prospective or current shareholders shouldn’t worry about this sale.
From a stock perspective, there is a lot to like about Grab as it continues along its path towards becoming Southeast Asia’s Uber. In fact, Uber is the company’s largest shareholder, as the two ride-hailing behemoths struck a deal in 2018 under which Grab acquired Uber’s Southeast Asian business in exchange for equity. Now, almost a decade later, Grab remains a major force in the region and continues to experience rapid growth across food and grocery delivery, rider mobility offerings, and fintech and payment products.
Grab grew sales by 24% in its latest quarter and recorded its 17th quarter of adjusted EBITDA growth. Powered by its 52 million monthly transacting users, Grab expects to generate $710 million in adjusted EBITDA in 2026, leaving it trading at a reasonable EV/EBITDA of 17, given its steady sales growth and improving margins. I’ll likely open a starting position in Grab at some point this summer and will slowly add to my position over the long haul.
