Serve Robotics (SERV) is back in the spotlight after strong Q4 results, a higher 2026 revenue outlook of about US$26 million, and a new White Castle delivery partnership through Uber Eats that extends the use of its autonomous fleet.
See our latest analysis for Serve Robotics.
Despite the strong Q4 update and new White Castle partnership, the stock has been under pressure recently, with a 1 day share price return showing a 5.05% decline and a year to date share price return showing a 22.91% decline. However, the 1 year total shareholder return of 19.06% points to earlier momentum that has cooled in recent months.
If Serve Robotics has put autonomous delivery on your radar, it could be worth seeing what else is out there with our screener of 30 robotics and automation stocks as another source of ideas.
With SERV trading at US$9.12, a value score of 1 and an analyst price target of US$18.86, the key question is whether recent weakness has opened a genuine entry point or if the market already reflects its future growth.
