Listen to the news

Grab Holdings (GRAB) is back in focus after record quarterly results, a higher full year revenue outlook, and a new US$750 million share buyback program that highlights fresh management confidence.

See our latest analysis for Grab Holdings.

Despite the upbeat guidance and buyback activity, Grab Holdings’ recent share price return has been weak, with the stock down about 29% on a 1 year total shareholder return basis and the year to date share price return also firmly negative, even though the 3 year total shareholder return remains positive.

The most followed narrative on Grab Holdings places fair value at $10.13 per share compared with the last close of $3.61. That gap raises clear questions about how the narrative arrives at such a large discount.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, Grab delivered its first full-year net profit of US$268 million on US$3.37 billion in revenue, reflecting solid operational discipline and revenue diversification. The company achieved a 43.2% gross margin and 7.9% net profit margin, marking a significant turnaround from prior losses.
