Heading into the print, investors had high hopes given the company's growth trajectory, and the top-line story delivered, driven in large part by the October 2025 Deliveroo acquisition, which meaningfully padded both order volumes and Marketplace GOV, which reached $29.70 billion for the quarter. Total Orders grew 32% to 903 million, and Adjusted EBITDA climbed 38% to $780 million. Still, the EPS miss reflects elevated costs tied to the integration, seasonal Dasher expenses, and heavy investment in grocery and retail expansion, categories where unit economics are not expected to turn positive until the second half of 2026. Looking ahead, management guided Q1 2026 Marketplace GOV of $31.00 billion to $31.80 billion, with Adjusted EBITDA of $675 million to $775 million, tempered by storm impacts and continued Deliveroo investment.
Key Takeaways
- • 32% Y/Y growth in Total Orders to 903 million in Q4 2025
- • 39% Y/Y growth in Marketplace GOV to $29.7 billion
- • Growth in consumer base and average consumer engagement
- • Deliveroo acquisition contributing to order growth and revenue
- • Record DashPass signups expanding consumer affordability
- • U.S. restaurant category saw double-digit Y/Y growth in new consumers
- • Over 56 million monthly active users and over 35 million membership subscribers at year-end
- • Organic international growth accelerated excluding Deliveroo in Q4
DASH Forward Guidance & Outlook
For Q1 2026, DoorDash guided Marketplace GOV of $31.0 billion to $31.8 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $675 million to $775 million. The company noted its current operating plan reflects Marketplace GOV within the guided range (versus historically exceeding the high end). Q1 Adjusted EBITDA is impacted by incremental Deliveroo investments (contribution expected below $25 million vs. over $45 million in Q4), an estimated $20 million direct impact from severe storms, and seasonal/investment-driven increases in Dasher costs per order. For full-year 2026, Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of Marketplace GOV is expected to increase slightly excluding Deliveroo. Deliveroo is expected to contribute approximately $200 million to 2026 Adjusted EBITDA. The company expects Adjusted EBITDA to be significantly higher in 2H 2026 versus 1H 2026. 2026 stock-based compensation is expected at approximately $1.3 billion to $1.4 billion, and depreciation and amortization at approximately $1.1 billion to $1.2 billion. Unit economics in U.S. grocery and retail categories are expected to turn positive in 2H 2026.
