Uber has published the formal offer document for its voluntary takeover bid for Delivery Hero after BaFin approved it. The acceptance period runs from August 27 to November 5; shareholders can tender their ordinary shares for €41.50 in cash, representing a premium of around 108% to the unaffected closing price on May 8. Uber already holds about 24.77% of the voting capital and, via derivatives and a tender commitment from Prosus, has an economic interest of roughly 53%. The offer requires more than 50% acceptance, antitrust clearances and other approvals; Uber waives a domination and profit-and-loss transfer agreement for three years. » Más en de.investing.com
