Delivery Hero, the Germany-based food delivery platform, plans to list 15 per cent of
its UAE subsidiary Talabat on the Dubai bourse in the fourth quarter, as it looks to
capitalise on the listing boom in the Emirates.
A total of 3,493,236,093 shares, each with a nominal value of Dh0.04, will be made
available in the offering, on-demand food and quick-commerce company Talabat said in
its prospectus on Monday.
The IPO of Talabat was announced in August and the public float remains subject to
market conditions.
The subscription period will open on November 19 and end on November 27 for UAE
retail investors, including eligible employees of Talabat, and on November 28 for
institutional investors.
The offer price will be determined through a book building process during the subscription
period, the company said. The company expects to start trading on the Dubai Financial
Market on or around December 10.
Talabat, which offers delivery of food, groceries and convenience retail, has operations in
the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt, Oman, Jordan, and Iraq. For the month of
September, its platform had more than six million active customers, more than 65,000
active restaurants, other groceries and retail vendors, as well as about 119,000 active
riders.
