There needs to be a standard way for companies to report their finances that does not allow this brazen trickery. Uber lost 2.6 billion this quarter (1.33 per share).<p>The company "New Constructs" does have some mechanism to create a standard "corrected" earnings report that reads past these financial tricks. Its supposedly based on an AI model - been happy with their reports so far - but they are a private company. It would be nice if there was a true standard that did the same that companies had to report in.
