Delivery Hero (ISIN DE000A2E4K43) was trading at EUR 36.56 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 2:12 p.m. CEST, plus 0.03 percent versus the prior close of EUR 36.55. According to Delivery Hero on September 24, 2026, Niklas Östberg will remain CEO beyond March 2027.
CEO continuity meets takeover process
Östberg's continued leadership comes as Uber's voluntary public takeover offer moves through its acceptance phase. The offer document set the initial acceptance period to expire on November 5, 2026, while completion is expected in the second half of 2027, subject to regulatory approvals, according to Yahoo Finance on August 27, 2026.
The offer price is EUR 41.50 per share. Against the Lang & Schwarz price of EUR 36.56, that implies a gap of 13.52 percent, calculated in euros and separate from the stock's daily move.
Guidance shows stronger operating momentum
Delivery Hero's first-half performance supplied the operating counterweight to the transaction story. Revenue reached EUR 7.8 billion in the first half of 2026, up 18 percent like-for-like, while adjusted EBITDA increased 4 percent year over year to EUR 427 million, according to Yahoo Finance.
Management raised full-year 2026 like-for-like revenue growth guidance from 14-16 percent to 17-19 percent. The adjusted EBITDA range also moved from EUR 910 million-EUR 960 million to EUR 960 million-EUR 1 billion, making execution the key operating variable during the takeover timetable.
Next results date is October 28
The next scheduled milestone is Delivery Hero's Q3 2026 trading update on October 28, 2026, according to Delivery Hero. The stock's EUR 11.1 billion market capitalization and EUR 14.80 to EUR 39.83 52-week range place the EUR 41.50 offer above the current yearly high, while the October results date offers the next company-specific operating checkpoint.
