• Takeover offer considered to be in the best interest of the company, its shareholders, employees and other stakeholders
• Offer price considered fair and adequate

Berlin, September 2, 2026 – Today, the Management Board and the Supervisory Board of Delivery Hero SE (“Delivery Hero” or the “Company”) (ISIN DE000A2E4K43, Frankfurt Stock Exchange: DHER) published a joint reasoned statement (“Statement”) regarding the voluntary public takeover offer to all of Delivery Hero’s shareholders (“Offer”) launched by Uber International Technologies II Corporation, a subsidiary of Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: UBER) (together “Uber”). 

The Management Board and the Supervisory Board of Delivery Hero have each independently reviewed and evaluated the offer document published by Uber and the terms and conditions of the Offer. They deem the Offer to be in the best interest of the Company, its shareholders, employees and other stakeholders. They therefore support the Offer and recommend that Delivery Hero shareholders accept it. 

Offer price considered fair and adequate

From a valuation perspective and after careful review of the offer document, the Management Board and the Supervisory Board consider the cash consideration of EUR 41.50 per Delivery Hero share to be fair and adequate. The offer price represents a premium of approx. 127% over the unaffected three-month volume-weighted average XETRA share price prior to and including May 8, 2026 (the last trading day prior to publicly reported transaction activity and significant corporate news), and a premium of approx. 108% over the XETRA closing price on that day. It also represents a premium of approx. 35% over the three-month average price prior to the publication of Uber’s intention to launch an offer on July 16, 2026. The offer price also exceeds the average analyst price target published prior to May 8, 2026 by approx. 52%. 

The Management Board and Supervisory Board received two fairness opinions regarding the fairness of the offer price. J.P. Morgan Securities plc, the exclusive financial advisor to the Company, provided a fairness opinion to the Management and Supervisory Boards, while the Supervisory Board also received a fairness opinion from UniCredit Bank GmbH. Each fairness opinion concludes, subject to its assumptions, qualifications and limitations, that the offer price is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Delivery Hero shares. 

Potential to create significant opportunities for customers, employees, and other stakeholders

The planned transaction is expected to bring together Uber’s global technology platform and mobility network with Delivery Hero’s leading local delivery brands, deep vendor relationships, and fast-growing Quick Commerce capabilities. The Management Board and the Supervisory Board share Uber’s view that the combination has the potential to accelerate product innovation and create significant additional opportunities for employees, customers, merchants, riders, drivers, and other stakeholders. Both boards therefore share the economic and strategic rationale of the Offer as described in the offer document and welcome Uber’s intentions expressed therein.

Delivery Hero shareholders may accept Uber’s Offer via their depositary banks and have been able to tender their shares since the publication of the offer document on August 27, 2026. The acceptance period is expected to end on November 5, 2026, 24:00 hrs CET.

The Offer is subject to a minimum acceptance threshold of 50% plus one share of Delivery Hero’s share capital (excluding treasury shares), merger control and other regulatory clearances, including approvals regarding the announced sale of select operations of the Delivery Hero group to an affiliate of SSW Partners, LP, as well as other customary conditions. Uber has secured an irrevocable undertaking for 16.68% of Delivery Hero shares. Combined with its existing 24.77% shareholding and 11.74% held via instruments, Uber’s total economic interest would exceed 53% of Delivery Hero’s current share capital. The detailed terms and conditions of the Offer as well as the closing conditions can be found in Uber’s offer document. Completion of the Offer is expected to occur in the second half of 2027.

The works council at Delivery Hero’s Berlin establishment has provided its own statement which has been published as an annex to the Statement of the Management Board and Supervisory Board.

The Statement (incl. annexes) is available free of charge from Delivery Hero SE, Investor Relations, Oranienburger Straße 70, 10117 Berlin, Germany (phone: +49 30 5444 59 105; email: ir@deliveryhero.com).
