Prosus Urges EU to Reconsider Delivery Hero Sale Mandate

Published on May 25, 2026

Prosus NV has found itself in a difficult position. The company is facing regulatory hurdles in Europe regarding its planned acquisition of another delivery platform.

The European Union mandated that Prosus must divest its shares in Delivery Hero SE to obtain antitrust approval. This requirement has prompted the company to formally request that the EU reconsider its stance.

In a statement, sources indicated that Prosus believes the forced sale is unnecessary and could hinder competition in the market. The company argues that maintaining its stake in Delivery Hero is crucial for market dynamics.

This move could impact Prosus’s overall strategy in the rapidly evolving delivery sector. A forced divestiture might weaken its market position and affect investor confidence, raising questions about the future of its acquisitions.
