DoorDash delivers an IPO filing
Robinhood Snacks, 16 November 2020
Drooling all over the S-1… DoorDash released its IPO paperwork on Friday, and didn’t hold back with the high-res food pics (so many poke bowls). Companies that are going public have to file a prospectus with the SEC so investors can get informed. Here’s what DoorDash delivered:
#1 food deliverer in the US: DoorDash has an enviable 50% share of the market. Uber Eats has 26%, Grubhub has 16%, and Postmates (which Uber’s buying) has 7%.
Sales more than tripled to $1.9B from January to September compared to the same period in 2019. 18M customers, 1M Dashers, and 390K merchants now use DoorDash’s platform.
It’s still not profitable. Buuuut: DoorDash significantly cut its net loss from $533M in the 2019 period to $149M in 2020.
