The British food delivery service Deliveroo has confirmed the receipt of a takeover offer by the US competitor Doordash.
There had already been media reports about a possible purchase last year. At that time it was said that the two companies did not agree on the evaluation and had stopped the talks in May.
Now both sides seem to be closer than 2024. The paper, driven by corresponding press releases, had gone out of the trade, almost 5 percent higher at 146.60 pence. Doorash evaluates the company with a total of around £ 2.7 billion.
In the event of a mandatory takeover offer, the Deliveroo Board of Directors recommends the Americans to present this to the British shareholders. The latter also decided to talk to Doordash about the possible offer and to enable him to have an in -depth book examination. However, there is no security that there will be a mandatory takeover offer, Deliveroo emphasized.
The Doorash share, noted on the Nasdaq, increased a moderate $ 187.76 on Friday.
