Buyback puts cash allocation first

Three dates shape the story
On October 7, 2026, S&P Global Ratings revised Prosus's outlook to positive and affirmed its BBB and A-2 ratings. On October 8, 2026, Prosus said Just Eat Takeaway orders grew 0.10 percent year over year in September after 55 months of declines, as reported by Ideal Investor. On October 13, 2026, the buyback update stated that Prosus had spent EUR 83.5 million on the latest purchases.
What does the buyback change?
The repurchases reduce the number of free-float shares by 2,361,582 in the reported period. The financial backdrop is mixed: S&P Global Ratings said Prosus generated USD 839 million of EBITDA in fiscal year 2026, up from USD 484 million in fiscal year 2025, while also noting that iFood EBITDA could fall to USD 100 million to USD 150 million in fiscal year 2027 as investment increases.

Prosus is valued at EUR 77.3 billion on the primary Euronext Amsterdam listing. Its portfolio remains concentrated in Tencent, which S&P Global Ratings said represented 80 percent to 85 percent of portfolio value in its October 7, 2026 assessment.
