Bird Overstated Revenue For More Than Two Years

Santa Monica-based Bird said last week that it had overstated its revenues for more than two years, by recognizing unpaid customer rides as revenue. According to Bird, its financial reports from the first quarter of 2020 through the second quarter of 2022 should "no longer be relied upon". Bird said its systems "recorded revenue for uncollected balances following the completion of certain Rides that should not have been recorded." The announcements came after an audit by Ernst & Young LLP.
