The debt-to-assets ratio for Uber Technologies Inc has shown a fairly consistent trend over the past eight quarters. The ratio has ranged from 0.25 to 0.31 during this period.

From Q1 2022 to Q2 2023, the ratio experienced a gradual increase from 0.29 to 0.28, indicating a slight deterioration in the company's leverage position. However, the ratio stabilized at 0.28 in Q2 2023 and started to improve slightly in Q3 2023 at 0.26. This improvement continued into Q4 2023, where the ratio further decreased to 0.25, suggesting a positive development in managing Uber's debt in relation to its assets.
