INCREASED STAKE IN DELIVERY HERO
Naspers today announced a transaction to obtain 22,359,857 shares in Delivery Hero (FRA:
DHER.GR) from Rocket Internet (FRA: RKET.GR) for €660m (US$775m) at a price of €29.50 per
share.
The additional 13% stake increases Naspers’s shareholding to 23.6% and positions the group
as the largest shareholder in Delivery Hero.
Growing its position in online food ordering and delivery is consistent with Naspers’ strategy
to invest in platforms with global potential that offer online marketplace services in high-
growth markets. The increased stake in Delivery Hero adds to the group’s investments in
iFood in Latam and Swiggy in India.
Founded in February 2008 and listed in June 2017, Delivery Hero offers online food delivery
services across more than 40 countries in Europe, the Middle East & North Africa (MENA),
Latin America, and the Asia-Pacific region. It also operates its own last-mile food delivery
primarily in more than 50 high-density urban areas around the world.
The online food delivery sector is still underpenetrated and growing rapidly across the world.
Delivery Hero is already the leading online food ordering and delivery marketplace in most of
the countries in which it operates and Naspers’ increased investment is due to its confidence
in the long-term prospects of the company.
Many markets have experienced significant traction already, but the potential in high-growth
markets is expected to be greater than that observed in the West.
The transaction is subject to regulatory approval, will be funded from existing resources, and
is expected to close in the first quarter of 2018.
