Delivery Hero (ISIN DE000A2E4K43) stock is trading around 36.75 EUR on Xetra as of September 1, 2026, with year-to-date performance of about 61.97% according to MarketScreener data, while investors focus on Uber’s cash offer of 41.50 EUR per share and an upgraded 2026 outlook based on strong growth.

Uber’s takeover offer sets a new valuation reference

According to an analysis on Goldesel dated September 1, 2026, Uber has launched a voluntary cash takeover offer for Delivery Hero at 41.50 EUR per share, with the acceptance period running from August 27 to November 5, 2026 after approval by the German financial regulator.

The same Goldesel report notes that the 41.50 EUR offer price is about 108% above the unaffected closing price of Delivery Hero on May 8, 2026 and around 127% above the volume-weighted three-month average up to that date, creating a substantial premium compared with historical trading levels.

Uber aims to use the transaction to expand its multi-product platform to 99 markets with a combined gross bookings volume of 236 billion USD in 2025, according to the Goldesel piece, underscoring that strategic scale is a key driver behind the bid.

Separate market coverage compiled on the Euronext Live Markets site on September 1, 2026 highlights that Delivery Hero has lifted its 2026 outlook on the back of strong growth, with the headline summarizing that the company is raising guidance amid Uber-related developments.

A UBS rating entry carried by MarketScreener on September 1, 2026 shows that the bank maintains a Neutral stance on Delivery Hero, while Italian MarketScreener pages still quote the same 36.73 EUR closing level and the 38.62 EUR average price target, suggesting that despite the Uber premium the sell-side base case remains only moderately above spot.
