SAN FRANCISCO — Uber appears to be powering through the tumult of the global economy, despite fears that consumers are skimping on rides and deliveries.

The company said Wednesday that it had $11.5 billion in revenue in its most recent quarter, up 14% from a year earlier and slightly below Wall Street investors’ expectations. Its total bookings also grew 14%, to $42.8 billion, which was in line with expectations.

Investors have been eager to see how President Donald Trump’s latest round of tariffs might affect Uber’s growth. While the company’s direct business has little exposure to tariffs, a hampered economy could make customers less willing to spend on rides and deliveries.

But Uber predicted its bookings would increase 16% to 20% in the current quarter, which was higher than Wall Street estimates of 14%. In a statement, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said that against “a dizzying backdrop of headlines on trade and economic policy,” the company’s start to the year was still strong.

“The categories that we operate in — these are restaurants, transportation, grocery — tend to be categories that are quite consistent even during periods of macro uncertainty,” Khosrowshahi told investors on a call.

Uber’s stock price fell as much as 5% in the hours after the report.

Uber’s profit for the quarter was $1.8 billion, an improvement from last year’s first-quarter loss of $654 million, which it attributed to a $721 million hit from revaluations of its investments.

Uber also announced a handful of new autonomous vehicle partnerships in the first four months of the year, all part of the company’s larger strategy to co-opt the growth of robot taxi companies that could be seen as its competitors.

In March, Uber began an exclusive partnership in Austin, Texas, with the autonomous vehicle company Waymo, and the arrangement will soon expand to Atlanta. As of May, Uber had 18 active autonomous vehicle partnerships.

Still, investors peppered Khosrowshahi on the earnings call with questions about Uber’s market share in cities that Waymo operated in.

“In terms of San Francisco and LA, the competitive environment is pretty stable,” Khosrowshahi told investors. “We’re not seeing any change there.”

While ride-hailing still accounts for the bulk of Uber’s profits, the company’s food delivery business grew 15%. The company also spent $700 million Tuesday to acquire an 85% stake in Trendyol Go, a Turkish food and grocery platform.

And Uber saw some relief from rising auto insurance costs, which have cut into the earnings of its drivers. The company grew its short-term and long-term insurance reserves in the last quarter compared with a year earlier.

The company has also worked to promote legislation in Georgia, Texas and Nevada that will lower insurance rates, Khosrowshahi told investors on the call.
