Sands Capital, an investment management company, released its Q1 2025 investor letter. Here is what the fund said: “DoorDash, Inc. (NASDAQ:DASH) is the leading food delivery platform in the United States by market share. The business exceeded investor expectations in its most recently reported quarter, demonstrating continued strong execution. Orders grew 19 percent year-over-year, supported by 14 percent growth in monthly active users, while adjusted EBITDA rose 56 percent. First-quarter 2025 guidance was better than consensus expected, calling for 20 percent gross order volume growth. Our investment case continues to play out, and we continue to believe that consensus underestimates DoorDash’s longer-term earnings power.” While we acknowledge the potential of DASH to grow, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
