Most people know Neutron better as Lime, the electric scooter and bike rental company, which I’ll also refer to by that name because of its recognition

The company steadily increased its revenue from $522 million in 2023 to $686.6 million in 2024 to $886.7 million in 2025, and its electric bike segment could see meaningful revenue growth ahead. According to Fortune Business Insights, the global electric bike market is expected to grow in value from $65.8 billion in 2026 to $193.2 billion by 2034. That said, when Lime goes public, there’s a connected company to this IPO that offers more moneymaking potential for long-term investors: Uber Technologies (NYSE: UBER).

Uber’s connection to Lime In 2018, Uber invested in Lime and formed a partnership in which Lime rentals would be available on the Uber app. Then, in 2020, Uber led a $170 million investment round in Lime, which also involved Uber transferring its electric bike and scooter division to Lime. Over the last few years, that partnership has become increasingly important to Lime.
