Why Lyft, Inc. (LYFT) Soared On Friday
SHARE

Lyft, Inc. (NASDAQ:LYFT) had an outstanding day on Friday, with its stock price skyrocketing by 28.08 percent to close at $16.65 per share. This surge came after the company announced that it had achieved profitability in the first quarter of the year. Lyft reported a net income of $2.6 million during this period, a significant turnaround from the $31.5 million net loss it experienced in the same period last year. Revenues also saw a healthy increase, rising by 13.5 percent to $1.45 billion from $1.277 billion year-on-year.

One of the key drivers behind Lyft’s strong performance was the growth in gross bookings, which increased by 12.7 percent to $4.28 billion from $3.69 billion in the same comparable period. This growth was supported by an increase in the number of active riders and ridership, highlighting the company’s ability to attract and retain customers.

Looking ahead, Lyft expects ridership to continue growing in the second quarter, with a mid-teens year-on-year increase projected. Gross bookings are also forecasted to range between $4.41 billion and $4.57 billion, representing a 10 to 14 percent year-on-year growth. CEO David Risher expressed confidence in the company’s future performance, citing expansions into new demographics through initiatives like Lyft Silver and plans to enter the European market with the FREENOW acquisition.

In terms of Friday’s best-performing stocks, Lyft claimed the top spot on the list. While the potential for LYFT as an investment is recognized, there is a belief that AI stocks present even greater promise for delivering higher returns in a shorter timeframe. One specific AI stock stands out for its performance since the beginning of 2025, outperforming popular AI stocks that have declined by around 25%. For investors seeking a more promising AI stock trading at less than 5 times its earnings, a report on the cheapest AI stock is recommended.

Overall, Lyft’s strong performance on Friday showcases its ability to deliver positive results and attract investor interest. With a focus on growth and innovation, the company is well-positioned to capitalize on opportunities in the ridesharing market and continue its upward trajectory.
