With the addition of the freight base that Transplace has, Uber Freight just rose way up the ranks of brokerages, and I assume will be making a whole lot more freight available via their app. Uber Freight is purchasing Transplace from TPG Capital, a private equity firm. The purchase, which was announced today, is expected to speed up Uber Freight's path to profitability.
According to reports, the purchase is being made via mostly cash, in addition to approximately $750 Million in company stock.
According to Reuters, Transplace on its website says it counts 62,000 unique users and has $11 billion of freight under management. Transplace is projected to post EBITDA of more than $100 million this year, Uber said in an investor presentation. It did not disclose Transplace's revenue but said the company reported a compound annual revenue growth rate of 15% since 2017.
