THE APEX TIMES
In a statement that echoed earlier media reports, Delivery Hero said it is negotiating with Uber Technologies regarding a possible acquisition, without disclosing deal terms.
Delivery Hero said it is in advanced negotiations with Uber Technologies about a potential takeover offer, confirming earlier coverage that the U.S. ride-hailing and food-delivery company was in talks with the European delivery group.
The announcement, published Tuesday, indicates the discussions have moved beyond preliminary conversations, but it does not provide additional deal details such as a valuation, structure, timetable, or whether any binding agreement has been reached.
Neither company in the disclosure is described as having completed due diligence in the announcement, and no specific offer price or share-exchange terms are reported in the post referenced by Yahoo Finance. The lack of disclosed terms suggests the talks remain conditional and subject to further negotiation.
The development lands at a time when delivery and mobility platforms have faced intense competition and pressure on margins, increasing the strategic value of scale, cross-category customers, and logistics capabilities. A combination of Uber’s consumer network with Delivery Hero’s ordering and restaurant partnerships would, in theory, create additional route to consolidation.
Still, the company update is framed around negotiations rather than a confirmed transaction. That distinction matters, because advanced talks do not guarantee that a final bid will be made, approved, or completed, particularly if regulatory review or shareholder discussions become necessary.
For investors and competitors, the immediate question is how far the talks can progress and what, if anything, changes in market expectations for the two businesses. Any announcement of a firm offer, a memorandum of understanding, or a definitive agreement would be the next milestone to watch for.
As of the posting referenced by Yahoo Finance, the companies did not disclose whether a potential offer would involve cash, stock, or a mixed structure, nor did they outline expected synergies or integration plans. Those omissions leave open how management teams weigh strategic benefits against execution risk.
