"Serve Robotics (Nasdaq: SERV) has become one of the most watched names in autonomous delivery as it races to build the first national-scale robotic delivery network. The company reports its next set of results after the market close, with Wall Street looking for continued operational expansion and a sharper path toward efficiency. Shares have climbed on optimism that Serve's fleet growth and new partnerships with national restaurant chains could accelerate adoption in urban markets."
"CEO Ali Kashani and CFO Brian Read have emphasized that Serve is entering the "scale with precision" phase, growing fast while improving per-robot productivity. The company's near-term focus is on hitting its 2,000-robot milestone by the end of 2025 and executing its fifth metro-area launch in Chicago. What to Expect When Serve Robotics Reports Key Areas to Watch When Serve Reports 1. Fleet Expansion and Market CoverageServe expanded to four metro areas in Q2, Los Angeles, Miami, Atlanta, and soon Chicago, and aims to double its fleet again in the back half of the year. Investors will look for updated fleet counts and whether deployment remains ahead of schedule, given prior acceleration of Gen 3 robot production. 2. Merchant and Partner Ecosystem GrowthThe company grew merchant partners from 1,500 to over 2,500 last quarter, including a new national rollout with Little Caesars through Uber Eats. Analysts will watch for additional enterprise partnerships or pilot expansions into grocery and logistics verticals. 3. AI and Autonomy PerformanceServe's "data and AI flywheel", where every delivery feeds model improvement, remains central to its thesis. Metrics like intervention rates (down 25% QoQ) and daily operating hours per robot (+20% QoQ) will signal progress in autonomy and cost leverage."
