Getaround (NYSE:GETR) stock is on the rise Friday following the release of the peer-to-peer car-sharing company’s third quarter of 2023 earnings report.

The earnings report includes revenue of $23.8 million for the quarter. That’s better than the $15.44 million that Wall Street was expecting in Q3. It also represents year-over-year growth of 42%.

Investors will also note that diluted earnings per share for the quarter came in at -29 cents. That’s much narrower than the company’s EPS of -$1.38 from the same period of the year prior.

Getaround founder and CEO Sam Zaid said the following about the company’s latest earnings data:

“Getaround is now the leader in gig car sharing. We believe our performance in the third quarter marked an inflection point in our growth as a company, with a significant increase in total revenues over 2022, achieving an annualized revenue run-rate of $95 million.”
