Status update summary
23 Mar, 2026Transaction overview
Announced divestment of Taiwan food delivery operations to Grab for $600 million in cash, marking a key milestone in a broader strategic review initiated in December 2025.
The Taiwan business generated EUR 1.5 billion GMV in 2025, about 3% of group GMV.
Transaction expected to close in H2 2026, pending regulatory approvals.
Delivery Hero will provide support services for up to 12 months post-close to ensure a smooth transition.
Transaction aims to unlock and crystalize shareholder value not previously reflected in trading valuation.
Financial and capital structure impact
Sale strengthens capital structure, reducing net leverage from 2.7x to 2.2x.
Proceeds and recent term loan issuance will be used to repay debt and maintain financial flexibility.
Cash balance strategy aims to optimize debt structure and support long-term interests.
Profitability and operational implications
EBITDA impact from the Taiwan sale is expected to be marginal in 2026, as platform cost allocations offset positive country-level EBITDA.
Transitional service agreement will generate some fees, keeping EBITDA and cash flow impact minimal during the migration period.
Over time, central and tech costs will be adjusted to reflect the reduced business scope.
Taiwan operations delivered positive adjusted EBITDA before group costs.
