Here are the figures for Lyft including the forecasts from analysts (who weren’t on the deal).

2016A2017A2018A2019E2020E2021E2022E2023E
Bookings$1.9bn$4.6bn$8.1bnn/an/an/an/an/a
Sales$0.3bn$1.1bn$2.2bn$3.4bn$4.6bn$5.4bn$6.0bn$7.4bn
EBITDA-$0.7bn-$0.7bn-$0.9bn-$1.1bn-$1.0bn-$0.8bn-$0.2bn+$0.4bn
EPSn/an/a-$3.83-$3.30-$2.92-$2.36-$0.89+$0.59

Note: I’d be surprised if we don’t see upgraded when the analysts who worked on the deal are allowed publish.

Next to Uber:

2016A2017A2018A
Bookings$19.2bn$34.4bn$49.8bn
Sales$3.8bn$7.9bn$11.3bn
EBITDA-$2.5bn-$2.6bn-$1.8bn

The sheer scale of Uber versus Lyft is astounding.

With Lyft worth $17bn, even after the chute below IPO price a straight revenue multiple puts Uber at a $81bn to $91bn depending on which revenue figure you use (reported or core-platform revenues).
