Uber is on the cusp of a significant expansion in its delivery operations by closing in on a buyout of Delivery Hero's stake. The ride-sharing giant currently holds about 24.77% of Delivery Hero's voting shares and an additional 11.74% via equity derivatives. The proposed transaction, which values Delivery Hero at approximately $14.8 billion ($13.7 billion after accounting for Uber's existing stake), would see Prosus tender its roughly 17% ownership. Upon completion, Uber's total economic interest in Delivery Hero would rise to around 53%, consolidating its influence and potentially streamlining global delivery services. This move signals a strategic push to enhance Uber's presence in the food and logistics delivery sector.
