INCREASED STAKE IN DELIVERY HERO TO OFFSET CURRENT AND FUTURE DILUTION


Prosus has acquired approximately 20.37 million shares in Delivery Hero (FRA:DHER.GR) via
market and bilateral trades through its subsidiary, MIH Food Holdings B.V.

Following the close of Delivery Hero’s most recent Woowa transaction on March 2, 2021, whereby
Delivery Hero SE bought an 87% stake in Woowa, South Korea’s biggest food delivery app, MIH
Food Holdings B.V.’s shareholding fell to 16.81%. The acquisition of the approximately
20.37 million shares increases MIH Food Holdings B.V.’s shareholding by 8.18% to 24.99%
(22.24% on a fully diluted basis) and continues to position the group as the largest shareholder
in Delivery Hero. Prosus acquired the shares with the intention to offset existing and future
dilution incurred from convertible issuances, employee exercises and stock issuance related to
the Woowa transaction. Prosus has no intention to buy any additional shares within the next
twelve months.

Growing its position in online food ordering and delivery is consistent with Prosus’s 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.

The transaction was funded from existing resources.
