DoorDash Inc. (NASDAQ: DASH) today announced its financial
results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. In addition to
our financial results below, our letter to shareholders is
available on the DoorDash investor relations website at
http://ir.doordash.com.
Excellent execution and continued investment allowed us to serve
more consumers on more occasions than at any time in our history in
Q3 2023, which drove strong year-over-year growth in Total Orders,
Marketplace GOV, and revenue in the quarter. Our broad-based growth
and continued focus on expense discipline drove an improvement to
our Q3 2023 GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling
interests versus Q3 2022, while Adjusted EBITDA reached an all-time
high. We are excited by our progress so far in 2023, and even more
so by the opportunity we have to further expand the scale, breadth,
and impact of our business going forward.
Third Quarter 2023 Key Financial Metrics
- Total Orders increased 24% year-over-year (Y/Y) to 543 million
and Marketplace GOV increased 24% Y/Y to $16.8 billion.
- Revenue increased 27% Y/Y to $2.2 billion and Net Revenue
Margin increased to 12.9% from 12.6% in Q3 2022.
- GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests
was $75 million compared to $296 million in Q3 2022, and Adjusted
EBITDA increased to $344 million from $87 million in Q3 2022.

Our Performance in Q3 2023
Q3 2023 was our best quarter as a public company for Marketplace
GOV, revenue, GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling
interests, and Adjusted EBITDA. In Q3 2023, effective execution,
ongoing investments throughout our business, and strong consumer
demand drove Total Orders up 24% Y/Y, Marketplace GOV up 24% Y/Y,
and revenue up 27% Y/Y.
In our U.S. marketplace, Y/Y growth in Total Orders accelerated
in Q3 2023 compared to Q2 2023 in both our restaurant and
non-restaurant categories. Y/Y growth in Total Orders also
accelerated in Q3 2023 compared to Q2 2023 in our international
marketplaces1 and in our Platform Services.
We grew monthly active users2 in September at a double-digit Y/Y
rate, with strong contributions from both our domestic and
international markets. We also grew Q3-ending members in DashPass
and Wolt+ on both a Y/Y and quarter-over-quarter (Q/Q) basis. Y/Y
growth in order frequency accelerated slightly in Q3 2023 compared
to Q2 2023.
In addition to strong growth in Total Orders and Marketplace GOV
in Q3 2023, improvements to logistics efficiency and a growing
contribution from advertising helped drive revenue up 27% Y/Y in Q3
2023.
The combination of efficiency gains and disciplined fixed cost
management improved GAAP net loss including redeemable
non-controlling interests to $75 million in Q3 2023 compared to a
GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests of
$296 million in Q3 2022. Adjusted EBITDA reached an all-time high
in Q3 2023 of $344 million compared to $87 million in Q3 2022.
GAAP cost of revenue was $1.2 billion in Q3 2023, up 24% Y/Y and
2% Q/Q. As a percentage of Marketplace GOV, GAAP cost of revenue
was 6.9% in Q3 2023, compared to 6.9% in both Q3 2022 and Q2
2023.
GAAP sales and marketing expense was $449 million in Q3 2023, up
7% Y/Y and down 5% Q/Q. Dasher acquisition costs declined on both a
Y/Y and Q/Q basis in Q3 2023, while other sales and marketing
expenses increased Y/Y and were roughly flat Q/Q.
We continued to manage operating expenses with discipline in Q3
2023. Combined, GAAP research and development expense and GAAP
general and administrative expense was $539 million in Q3 2023, up
very slightly from $537 million in Q3 2022, and down 12% from $610
million in Q2 2023. Compared to Q2 2023, Q3 2023 GAAP general and
administrative expense benefited from the combination of a
reallocation of certain automotive liabilities to cost of revenue,
changes in tax-related items, and a seasonal decline in
compensation expenses.
In Q3 2023, operating cash flow was $398 million and Free Cash
Flow was $324 million. On a trailing 12-month basis, we generated
operating cash flow of $1.2 billion and Free Cash Flow of $878
million.
In February 2023, our board of directors authorized the
repurchase of up to $750 million of our Class A common stock.
Year-to-date, we repurchased a total of 12.0 million shares of our
Class A common stock for $750 million, which completed repurchases
under the February authorization. Based on our current forecast for
stock issuances, we now expect to exit 2023 with total basic
shares, options, and RSUs outstanding between 450 million and 455
million.

Financial Outlook
Period
Marketplace GOV
Adj. EBITDA
Q4
$17.0 billion - $17.4 billion
$320 million - $380 million
Our outlook assumes that key foreign currency rates remain
relatively stable at current levels. Our outlook also anticipates
significant levels of ongoing investment in new categories and
international markets. We caution investors that consumer spending
in any of our geographies could deteriorate relative to our
outlook, which could drive results below our expectations.
Additionally, our increasing international exposure heightens risks
associated with operating in foreign markets, including
geopolitical and currency risks. Changes in the international
operating environment could negatively impact results versus our
current outlook.
We have not provided GAAP net loss including redeemable
non-controlling interests outlook or a reconciliation of Adjusted
EBITDA to GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling
interests as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the
potential variability of, reconciling items such as taxes and other
items. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net
loss including redeemable non-controlling interests is not
available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to
note that material changes to reconciling items could have a
significant effect on future GAAP results. We have provided
historical reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP metrics in tables at
the end of this release. For more information regarding the
non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, please see
"Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
A Note On Our Financial Outlook Going Forward
In our Q4 2023 earnings release, we intend to provide our
outlook for Marketplace GOV and Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2024 as well
as full-year 2024. However, beginning with our Q1 2024 earnings
release, we intend to discontinue providing any full-year financial
outlooks. We intend to continue providing quarterly outlooks for
Marketplace GOV and Adjusted EBITDA in our earnings releases.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial information presented in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we
consider certain financial measures that are not prepared in
accordance with GAAP, including adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted
sales and marketing expense, adjusted research and development
expense, adjusted general and administrative expense, Contribution
Profit, Contribution Margin, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross
Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow. We use these financial
measures in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall
assessment of our performance, including the preparation of our
annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the
effectiveness of our business strategies, and to communicate with
our board of directors concerning our business and financial
performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures
provide useful information to investors about our business and
financial performance, enhance their overall understanding of our
past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater
transparency with respect to metrics used by our management in
their financial and operational decision making. We are presenting
these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in seeing our
business and financial performance through the eyes of management,
and because we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures
provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing
results of operations of our business over multiple periods with
other companies in our industry.
We define adjusted cost of revenue as cost of revenue, exclusive
of depreciation and amortization, excluding stock-based
compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense, allocated
overhead, and inventory write off related to restructuring.
Allocated overhead is determined based on an allocation of shared
costs, such as facilities (including rent and utilities) and
information technology costs, among all departments based on
employee headcount. We define adjusted sales and marketing expense
as sales and marketing expenses excluding stock-based compensation
expense and certain payroll tax expense, and allocated overhead. We
define adjusted research and development expense as research and
development expenses excluding stock-based compensation expense and
certain payroll tax expense, and allocated overhead. We define
adjusted general and administrative expense as general and
administrative expenses excluding stock-based compensation expense
and certain payroll tax expense, certain legal, tax, and regulatory
settlements, reserves, and expenses, transaction-related costs
(primarily consists of acquisition, integration, and investment
related costs), impairment expenses, and including allocated
overhead from cost of revenue, sales and marketing, and research
and development.
We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit plus (i)
depreciation and amortization expense related to cost of revenue,
(ii) stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax
expense included in cost of revenue, (iii) allocated overhead
included in cost of revenue, and (iv) inventory write off related
to restructuring. Gross profit is defined as revenue less (i) cost
of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and (ii)
depreciation and amortization related to cost of revenue. Adjusted
Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of
revenue for the same period.
We define Contribution Profit as our gross profit less sales and
marketing expense plus (i) depreciation and amortization expense
related to cost of revenue, (ii) stock-based compensation expense
and certain payroll tax expense included in cost of revenue and
sales and marketing expenses, (iii) allocated overhead included in
cost of revenue and sales and marketing expenses, and (iv)
inventory write off related to restructuring. We define gross
margin as gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the same
period and we define Contribution Margin as Contribution Profit as
a percentage of revenue for the same period.
Adjusted EBITDA is a measure that we use to assess our operating
performance and the operating leverage in our business. We define
Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) including redeemable
non-controlling interests, adjusted to exclude (i) certain legal,
tax, and regulatory settlements, reserves, and expenses, (ii) loss
on disposal of property and equipment, (iii) transaction-related
costs (primarily consists of acquisition, integration, and
investment related costs), (iv) impairment expenses, (v)
restructuring charges, (vi) inventory write off related to
restructuring, (vii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes,
(viii) interest income, net, (ix) other expense, net, (x)
stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense,
and (xi) depreciation and amortization expense.
We define Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities
less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software
and website development costs.
We define Total Orders as all orders completed through our
marketplaces and platform services businesses over the period of
measurement.
We define Marketplace GOV as the total dollar value of orders
completed on our marketplaces, including taxes, tips, and any
applicable consumer fees, including membership fees related to
DashPass and Wolt+. Marketplace orders include orders completed
through Pickup and DoorDash for Work. Marketplace GOV does not
include the dollar value of orders, taxes and tips, or fees charged
to merchants, for orders fulfilled through Drive, Storefront, or
Bbot.
We define Net Revenue Margin as revenue expressed as a
percentage of Marketplace GOV.
Our definitions may differ from the definitions used by other
companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition,
other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Further,
these metrics have certain limitations in that they do not include
the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed
consolidated statements of operations. Thus, our adjusted cost of
revenue, adjusted sales and marketing expense, adjusted research
and development expense, adjusted general and administrative
expense, Contribution Profit, Contribution Margin, Adjusted Gross
Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow
should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in
isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We exclude certain costs and expenses from
our calculation of adjusted general and administrative expense
because management believes that these costs and expenses are not
indicative of our core operating performance, do not reflect the
underlying economics of our business, and are not necessary to
operate our business. These excluded costs and expenses consist of
(i) certain legal costs, primarily related to worker classification
matters, as well as a settlement entered into in connection with an
initiative to serve underrepresented communities, (ii) reserves and
settlements or other resolutions for or related to the collection
of sales, indirect, and other taxes that we do not expect to incur
on a recurring basis, (iii) expenses related to supporting various
policy matters, including those related to worker classification,
other labor law matters, and price controls, and (iv) donations as
part of our relief efforts in connection with the COVID-19
pandemic. We believe it is appropriate to exclude the foregoing
matters from our calculation of adjusted general and administrative
expense because (1) the timing and magnitude of such expenses are
unpredictable and thus not part of management’s budgeting or
forecasting process, and (2) with respect to worker classification
matters, management currently expects such expenses will not be
material to our results of operations over the long term as a
result of increasing legislative and regulatory certainty in this
area, including as a result of Proposition 22 in California and
similar legislation.
(2)
Consists of acquisition, integration, and
investment related costs, primarily related to Wolt
acquisition.
(3)
Consists of impairment expense related to
an operating lease right-of-use asset associated with our former
headquarters.

In November 2020, our board of directors
granted restricted stock units ("RSUs") to our Chief Executive
Officer, Tony Xu, covering 10,379,000 shares of our Class A common
stock, which we refer to here as the 2020 CEO Performance Award.
The award is intended to be the exclusive equity award to Mr. Xu
over a seven year performance period, which ends November 23, 2027.
The award has nine tranches that are eligible to vest based on the
achievement of stock price goals ranging from $187.60 to $501.00,
measured using an average of our stock price over a consecutive
180-day period during the performance period. For more information
on the 2020 CEO Performance Award, please refer to our annual proxy
statement.
(2)
Certain RSUs awarded prior to or around
the time of our initial public offering have grant-date fair values
that significantly exceed the fair value of the awards (“409A
value”) prevailing at the time they were committed to employees.
The amounts included here represent the stock based compensation
associated with the excess amount of the grant-date fair value over
the 409A value.
