Uber Settles Class Action for $200 Million Ahead of $8.1 Billion IPO; Lyft Implements Reforms After Driver Assault Lawsuit

Uber has agreed to pay $200 million to settle a class action lawsuit that accused the company of failing to adequately inform investors about significant business risks related to stalling growth and potential legal challenges prior to its $8.1 billion initial public offering in 2019. Meanwhile, Lyft has settled a shareholder lawsuit concerning sexual assaults by drivers, agreeing to implement various safety and governance reforms. The lawsuit claimed that Lyft's executives and directors did not take sufficient measures to prevent these incidents, although top executives will not face personal financial penalties as part of the settlement.
