Lyft CEO David Risher took responsibility for the major error that appeared in the company's fourth-quarter earnings release late Tuesday, telling CNBC's "Squawk Box" that it's "super frustrating" for everyone on the team. It is an extra zero that slipped into a press release." Lyft reported $1.22 billion in revenue for the quarter, an increase of 4% from $1.175 billion a year earlier. In a note titled, "Lyft: We all make mistakes," analysts at MoffettNathanson raised their rating on the shares to neutral from sell. "Typos aside, we too are guilty of a mistake," the analysts wrote, citing their downgrade on the stock in October.

OpenAI's tender offer, which would allow employees to sell shares in the start-up to outside investors, remains on track despite the leadership tumult and board shuffle, two people familiar with the matter told CNBC. The round and previously reported valuation were jeopardized by Sam Altman's temporary ouster earlier in November, but his return cleared the way for the tender offer to proceed. The extension of the tender offer comes after a rollercoaster couple of weeks for the company. OpenAI's other major backers include Founders Fund, Sequoia Capital and, following the completion of the tender offer, Thrive Capital. Founders Fund will not participate in the tender offer either, a person familiar with the firm said.
