Uber Finances SSW Purchase in Delivery Hero Deal
Uber's multibillion-euro takeover of Delivery Hero includes a separate sale of Delivery Hero's operations in 14 countries, including Spain and Austria, to U.S. investment firm SSW Partners for ~$1.6 billion. Uber will finance the majority of SSW's purchase price via a loan, with repayment expected over time, possibly from a future sale. The main offer is €41.50 per share, valuing Delivery Hero's equity at $14.8 billion. The deal aims to consolidate the delivery market, reducing major players from four to three, and ease antitrust concerns by divesting overlapping markets. Regulatory approvals are needed from the European Commission and authorities in Austria, Spain, Poland, and Ecuador. Closing is expected in H2 2027, subject to conditions, with a €700 million reverse fee if the deal fails on regulatory grounds.
