Delivery Hero to buy back $1b in bonds

Delivery Hero SE, a German food delivery company, plans to repurchase approximately €1 billion (US$1 billion) in bonds.

This buyback will be funded by proceeds from the public listing of Talabat, its Middle Eastern subsidiary, which occurred in December 2024.

The company announced on Feb.13 that it aims to redeem convertible bonds due in 2025 and 2026, along with up to €350 million (US$363.16) for bonds maturing in 2027.

This decision supports Delivery Hero’s strategy to manage its US$3.8 billion debt more effectively.
