INCREASED STAKE IN DELIVERY HERO TO OFFSET CURRENT AND FUTURE DILUTION
Prosus, major subsidiary of Naspers, 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.
Robots in quick commerce: is this the future of delivery?
Since Doora (foodora’s new and fully autonomous delivery robot) started to roam the streets of Stockholm, it has been a sensation in Sweden and beyond: Passengers stop to take photos of the striking pink droid; customers who receive their orders from Doora open their doors in awe; and industry experts debate what role robotics play in the future of delivery – and whether this future is in fact already here.
Efficient, contactless and environment-friendly, robot delivery has a lot to offer when it comes to integrating into the delivery ecosystems of our cities. In order to pilot this scenario, foodora developed their own fully autonomous delivery robot Doora, which started its test phase around Stureplan in Stockholm earlier this year, and will continue to run more tests during spring 2021. Doora will be used to transport both food and other products weighing up to 20 kg, supporting the efforts of quick commerce (or q-commerce), bringing items to customers in less than one hour. And it is hoped that Doora, with a top speed of 6 km/h and a battery life of eight hours, will be seen in cities all over Sweden after the beta test.
Bravo DHER 👏👏
