Net income rose 41% to $44 million, representing a 12% margin. Adjusted EBITDA, an earnings measure excluding specified expenses, was $118 million, with a 33% margin.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Key Terms

5 terms

gaap financial

"We have not provided the GAAP net income (loss) outlook"

GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.

View in glossary

non-gaap financial measures financial

"To supplement our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP"

Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.

convertible notes financial

"the change in the fair value of our convertible notes issued in 2021"

Convertible notes are a type of short-term loan that a company receives from investors, which can later be turned into company shares instead of being paid back in cash. They matter to investors because they offer a way to support a company early on while giving the potential to own a stake in its success if the company grows and later raises more funding.

stock-based compensation financial

"depreciation and amortization, gain/loss on vehicle disposals, and stock-based compensation"

Stock-based compensation is when a company pays employees, directors or consultants with shares or the right to buy shares instead of or in addition to cash. It matters to investors because issuing stock or options spreads ownership thinner (like cutting a pie into more slices), which can reduce each existing share’s claim on profits and can also change reported earnings; investors watch it to assess true cost of running the business and how management is incentivized.

View in glossary

free cash flow financial

"Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures"

Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.

Record Third Quarter Revenue of $361 Million, Up 20% YoY

Exceeds $1 Billion in Trailing Twelve-Month Revenue for First Time in Company History

Updates Full Year 2026 Guidance

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Neutron Holdings, Inc. (“Lime” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: LIME), the largest global shared micromobility business, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

“Q3 was a landmark quarter for Lime, as we crossed $1 billion in trailing twelve-month revenue for the first time,” said Wayne Ting, CEO. “Our LimePrime subscription continues to scale rapidly, serving as a powerful driver of rider loyalty and engagement. As we look ahead, we are prioritizing long-term value over short-term metrics. While our targeted market investments and LimePrime’s growth may temporarily affect near-term margins, we believe they also help secure our local market leadership. We remain laser-focused on delivering durable growth, robust unit economics, and strong free cash flow as we execute on our mission to make transportation shared, affordable, and carbon-free.”

Third Quarter 2026 Financial and Operational Highlights:

• Revenue increased to $361 million, up 20% year-over-year.
• Net Income of $44 million increased 41% year-over-year, and represented a 12% margin.
• Adjusted EBITDA of $118 million, represented a 33% margin.
• Average Operational Fleet grew to 447,184 vehicles, an increase of 26% year-over-year.
  
  

Notable Developments During the Quarter:

• Trailing twelve-month revenue exceeded $1 billion for the first time for the twelve months ended September 30, 2026.
• The average LimePrime rider took 8 times as many trips as the average Pay-As-You-Go rider.
• Lime's 2025 Carbon Inventory Report highlighted an 81% decrease in total emission intensity in 2025 at the same time as a 250% increase in total miles traveled in 2025 compared to 2019.
  
  

2026 Outlook
“Our momentum remains strong, positioning us to deliver another solid quarter of growth and profitability in Q4 even as we invest strategically in select markets and expand LimePrime,” said Ann Gugino, CFO. “We are particularly encouraged by the early trends in LimePrime engagement and retention, where the average rider is now generating two times the adjusted gross profit per non-subscription rider. We plan to continue to invest in long-term growth opportunities like LimePrime and market expansion, while also maintaining unit economics discipline and remaining focused on maximizing long-term free cash flow. We are confident in our outlook and remain committed to driving durable, profitable growth and creating long-term shareholder value.”

The Company provided the following guidance for the balance of 2026:

Fourth Quarter 2026

• Revenue in the range of $240 million to $250 million.

Full Year 2026

• Revenue in the range of $1.04 billion to $1.1 billion.
• Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $253 million to $255 million.
• Capital expenditures of approximately $172 million to $177 million.
  
  

We have not provided the GAAP net income (loss) outlook or a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP net income (loss) as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation, acquisition related expense, and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP net income (loss) outlook is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that the reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results. We have provided historical reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in tables at the end of this release. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this earnings release, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Our expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize, and actual results in future periods are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including those more fully described under the caption “Risk Factors” in documents that we file with the SEC from time to time, including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 that will be filed following this earnings release.

Key Operating Metrics Definitions

• Average Operational Fleet: Our operational fleet, defined as the total number of vehicles available on our platform, represents the average number of vehicles available for use for at least one hour per day during a specific period.
  
  
• Revenue per Vehicle per Day (RVD): We define RVD as the average daily revenue generated by each operational vehicle in our fleet. This is calculated by taking the ratio of revenue to average operational fleet and then dividing by the number of days in the period.
  
  
• Monthly Active Users (MAU): We define Monthly Active Users as the total number of unique riders who complete at least one e-scooter or e-bike trip on our platform at least once in a given month, averaged over each month in the measurement period.
  
  

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to facilitate analysis of our financial and business trends and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

We use Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow in conjunction with GAAP measures to evaluate our performance, inform our budgeting and capital allocation decisions, and assess the effectiveness of our business strategies. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide valuable insights to investors, enhancing their understanding of our historical performance and future potential. They also offer transparency into the metrics our management team utilizes for financial and operational decision-making. By presenting Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow we aim to provide investors with a view of our business and financial performance through the lens of management, offering an additional tool for comparing our operational results across multiple periods.

It is important to note that our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled metrics used by other companies. Furthermore, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. These metrics also have inherent limitations, as they exclude the impact of certain expenses reflected in our consolidated statements of operations. Therefore, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow should be considered as supplementary information, and not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as gross profit excluding loss on vehicle asset disposals, depreciation and amortization. By removing these non-cash expenses, Adjusted Gross Profit can be used to evaluate the unit economic profile of the business, highlighting the profitability of each ride or city before accounting for the long-term allocation of asset costs. This approach helps in assessing the direct operational efficiency and profitability tied to the core activities that drive revenue. Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted Gross Profit for a period by revenue for the same period.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance metric we use to assess our core operating performance and operating leverage by excluding items that are non-cash or are not indicative of our ongoing business results. It is calculated by starting with net income (loss) and then adjusted to exclude interest expense, income tax (including a discrete tax benefit resulting from the release of the valuation allowance on the Company's U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets), depreciation and amortization (which includes vehicle depreciation, non-vehicle depreciation, and the amortization of capitalized software and cloud computing arrangements), gain/loss on vehicle disposals, and stock-based compensation. Furthermore, we exclude other expense, net; this category encompasses the change in the fair value of our convertible notes issued in 2021, interest income, other miscellaneous income or expense and all realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses. We also adjusted to exclude costs related to non-recurring IPO and public company readiness efforts and expenses related to acquisitions. By removing these specific financial, non-cash, and non-core operational items, Adjusted EBITDA provides a clearer view of the profitability and cash-generating potential of our fundamental business operations. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for a period by revenue for the same period.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures for vehicle and non-vehicle assets.

A reconciliation is provided at the end of this press release for each historical non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We encourage investors to review the related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
