"We believe that everyone deserves the convenience of delivery, and with this growing list of merchant partners we can continue to provide access to the fresh food that families and individuals need, especially those without access to reliable transportation for whom food delivery can be a lifeline," said Hashim Amin, Head of Grocery and Retail Delivery at Uber, North America.
"This expansion gives SNAP recipients access to tens of thousands of new stores — from national chains to local grocers — all through the Uber Eats app," said Ofek Lavian, co-founder and CEO of Forage. "We're proud to power the technology behind it, helping more families use their benefits with confidence and convenience."
As Uber Eats continues to innovate and expand its services, the company remains dedicated to addressing food insecurity and fostering inclusive communities. This payment option is a vital step in achieving that goal, removing barriers and allowing all people and families to make healthy choices.
For improved convenience, customers can now browse through a wide range of SNAP-enabled retailers and grocery items within the app via the new SNAP icon. To highlight the growing selection of retailers and offer greater value, EBT cardholders will receive $0 Delivery Fee on their first three SNAP-eligible orders. Additionally, eligible EBT cardholders can currently receive a limited-time free trial of Uber One, which includes a $0 Delivery Fee on all eligible food, groceries, and more + other benefits, when they link their EBT card in the Uber Eats app. As part of our ongoing commitment to affordability and access, Uber Eats is exploring additional ways to support SNAP users through future promotions.

Rivian CEO Joins Bezos & Gates Divorce Club—Voting Power Slashed Before R2 Debut

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) ownership looks different going forward as the company's founder RJ Scaringe had to transfer part of his stake in the electric vehicle company as part of a divorce settlement. What Happened: Ahead of the highly anticipated launch of the R2 vehicle for Rivian, the company's CEO has transferred around four million shares and six million options in the company's stock to his ex-wife Meagan Scaringe. The transfer was reported in a regulatory filing, as shared by TechCrunch. Based on current values, the stock and options sent to his ex-wife are worth around $130 million. Scaringe owned over 15 million shares of Rivian Class A stock back in April, alongside around 8 million Class B voting shares. Trending: GoSun's Breakthrough Rooftop EV Charger Already Has 2,000+ Units Reserved — With the transfer of stock and options, Scaringe now owns around 2% of the electric vehicle company and has around 4% of voting power in the company. This marks the lowest voting power Scaringe has had in the company since it went public in 2021. Scaringe's voting power was 7.6% earlier this year and was over 9% back in 2022. "RJ and Meagan finalized their divorce. They will continue to prioritize co-parenting their children," a Rivian spokesperson told TechCrunch. As Scaringe's ownership stake falls, Volkswagen is now one of the largest shareholders in the company, thanks to a joint venture. Volkswagen owns 12.3% of Rivian, according to the report. Early investor and partner Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) owns 14.2% of the company and has the most significant voting power at 13.3%. Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F), which was previously a large shareholder in Rivian, has mostly sold its stake in the company. While Scaringe's voting power in the company has decreased, the fact that he owned 9.2% in 2022, after the company's IPO, is significantly smaller than the voting power many CEOs who are founders in their companies have. Scaringe's stake in the company could rise in the future if he exercises options and restricted stock units. The Scaringes were married in 2014, five years after Scaringe founded It's Important: The divorces of company CEOs and co-founders typically have no material impact on the business, but can affect the ownership structure and control going forward. Scaringe's lower ownership stake and voting power could, of course, become a factor down the road if any company approached Rivian as an acquisition target. Until then, Scaringe's ownership will decrease as a result of a divorce, similar to what has happened to other company founders, such as Jeff Bezos (Amazon) and Bill Gates (Microsoft). In 2019, Bezos and MacKenzie Scott were divorced. The break-up saw Scott receive 400 million shares in Amazon, lowering the stake of the company's founder. Scott has sold portions of her Amazon stake over the years to help fund philanthropic efforts. Bezos, who serves as Executive Chairman of Amazon, has also been selling portions of his Amazon stock in recent months. Another highly publicized divorce, given the wealth of the parties involved, was the 2021 divorce of Bill Gates and Melinda French Gates. The divorce resulted in Melinda receiving a portion of the Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) stock owned by her husband. A portion of Gates' ownership in Microsoft was also transferred to the Gates Foundation, the philanthropic organization co-founded by the former partners. Melinda also received portions of stock owned by Cascade Investments, the investment portfolio owned by Gates. This included stock in companies like AutoNation, Canadian National Railway, Grupo Televisa and Coca-Cola Femsa.

Comerica (CMA) To Report Earnings Tomorrow: Here Is What To Expect

Financial services company Comerica (NYSE:CMA) will be reporting results this Friday morning. Here's what you need to know. Comerica missed analysts' revenue expectations by 1.8% last quarter, reporting revenues of $815.2 million, up 4% year on year. It was a satisfactory quarter for the company, with a solid beat of analysts' tangible book value per share estimates. Is Comerica a buy or sell going into earnings? Read our full analysis here, it's free. This quarter, analysts are expecting Comerica's revenue to grow 2.3% year on year to $843.1 million, a reversal from the 10.7% decrease it recorded in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $1.22 per share. Heading into earnings, analysts covering the company have grown increasingly bearish with revenue estimates seeing 7 downward revisions over the last 30 days (we track 14 analysts). Comerica has missed Wall Street's revenue estimates four times over the last two years. Looking at Comerica's peers in the regional banks segment, some have already reported their Q2 results, giving us a hint as to what we can expect. Fulton Financial's revenues decreased 3.2% year on year, beating analysts' expectations by 1.9%, and Synovus Financial reported revenues up 93.9%, topping estimates by 1.5%. Fulton Financial's stock price was unchanged following the results. Read our full analysis of Fulton Financial's results here and Synovus Financial's results here. There has been positive sentiment among investors in the regional banks segment, with share prices up 10.4% on average over the last month. Comerica is up 12.7% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $61.47 (compared to the current share price of $62). When a company has more cash than it knows what to do with, buying back its own shares can make a lot of sense–as long as the price is right. Luckily, we've found one, a low-priced stock that is gushing free cash flow AND buying back shares.
