FRANKFURT/MILAN - Uber is considering a higher takeover bid for Delivery Hero after its initial offer of €33 per share was rejected, the Financial Times reported.
Delivery Hero shares surged up to 12.7% to an 18-month high, valuing the German firm at €11.5 billion ($13.4 billion). The stock has risen over 80% in 11 sessions.
Uber, already the top shareholder with a 19.5% stake, approached Delivery Hero with a fresh proposal around €38 per share, which was also rebuffed. Some shareholders seek over €40 per share.
