Uber, Lyft, Airbnb, etc. all typically report &#x27;Gross Revenue&#x27; which is pretty misleading since the majority of Gross Revenue is passed through to the driver &#x2F; apartment owner -- That may be what that sentence is in reference to.  The interesting number is &#x27;Net Revenue&#x27; which is how much Uber actually receives to pay their bills, etc.<p>Quick example, if 10 riders take an Uber and their cost is $20&#x2F;each, Uber would report $200 in Gross Revenue. Since their driver split is something like 80&#x2F;20, their Net Revenue would only be $40.
