ABOUT
With the Southeast Asian super app going public in the US by way of a deal with special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) Altimeter Growth this year, Grab used this deck to reveal its previously closely guarded financials to its investors.
Grab first revved up its engines in 2013, when the startup launched its taxi-booking app in Singapore. The company raised its seed funding round a year after, aiming to take a bigger slice of Southeast Asia’s ride-hailing pie.
Its first venture outside of Singapore happened in 2014 when it launched in its now archrival Gojek’s home turf, Indonesia. Today, Grab boasts over 25 million monthly transacting users in over 400 cities across eight countries, including the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, and Cambodia.
It didn’t hit the brakes after becoming one of the region’s transportation powerhouses: The company also expanded into other verticals, entering the payments space in 2016 with GrabPay, food delivery with GrabFood in 2018, and courier services with GrabExpress later that year.
Over the years, Grab has raised a total of about US$12 billion in funding, en route to hitting a valuation of US$40 billion.
