Uber received valuations from Wall Street banks that could put the value of the company up to $120 billion for an initial public offering that could happen as soon as early next year, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The ride-hailing company's most recent valuation was pegged at $76 billion, following a $500 million investment from Toyota Motor Corp in August.
Reuters reported in late September that Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley were in pole position to secure top roles in Uber IPO.
Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley last month delivered the valuation proposals to Uber, the WSJ report said.
Uber and smaller rival Lyft have been actively preparing to go public next year. While Lyft has hired IPO advisory firm Class V Group LLC, Uber is behind in its preparations.
Uber hired Nelson Chai as its chief financial officer in August, filling a long-standing vacancy and clearing the way for its much-anticipated IPO.
Uber declined to comment on the WSJ report.
