• With a record of 213 new Dmart openings in Q4, Delivery Hero operated more than 1,000 warehouses globally by the end of 2021
• Looking at FY 2022, the company expects to achieve adjusted EBITDA break-even in its platform business^[1] and sets full-year guidance for the group's adjusted EBITDA/GMV margin of around -1.0% to -1.2%

Berlin, 10 February 2022 - Delivery Hero SE ("Delivery Hero", "the group" or "the company"), the world's leading local delivery platform, today published its financial results for the fourth quarter of 2021^[2]. The group generated a Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) of EUR 9.6 billion (+39% YoY) while total segment revenue increased to EUR 1.9 billion (+66% YoY). In Q4, Delivery Hero achieved a record-high contribution margin^[3] of own-delivery^[4], which made up for 51% of the company's orders.

Niklas Östberg, CEO and Co-Founder of Delivery Hero, said: "The last quarter of 2021 was marked by improved economics and strengthening of leadership in key regions and new verticals. Finishing off the year on a high note, we signed an agreement to become the majority shareholder of Glovo, which will increase our geographical footprint and long term growth potential. Upon closing, we will serve up to 2.2 billion people around the world."

Record results for the full year 2021
With strong continued performance in the fourth quarter 2021, Delivery Hero concludes a year that was marked by growth, innovation and solid financial results. In total, the company generated a GMV of EUR 35.4 billion (+62% YoY), slightly exceeding the given guidance of EUR 33 to 35 billion. With EUR 6.6 billion total segment revenue (+89% YoY), the upper end of the given forecast of EUR 6.4 to 6.7 billion was almost reached. The adjusted EBITDA/GMV margin for the financial year 2021 of -2.2% is in line with the set guidance of around -2%.

Financial outlook for 2022 and expected profitability for the platform business
Delivery Hero also published guidance^[5] for the full-year 2022, anticipating GMV to range between EUR 44 to 45 billion, total segment revenue to reach EUR 9.5 to 10.5 billion and an adjusted EBITDA/GMV margin of around -1.0% to -1.2%. The company is on track to generate a positive adjusted EBITDA for the platform business for the full year 2022.

Emmanuel Thomassin, CFO of Delivery Hero, said: "We are proud to deliver on our promises for 2021 in terms of GMV, revenue and EBITDA. With steady growth rates and an increasing contribution margin of own-delivery, it is clear that our business model works. Our deliberate focus on scale and driving efficiency pays off, and we expect our platform business to generate a positive adjusted EBITDA this year."

Optimizing Delivery Hero's global footprint
Marking a major milestone, in December 2021 Delivery Hero signed an agreement^[6] to become the majority shareholder of the Spanish multi-category delivery platform Glovo, acquiring an additional stake of approximately 39.4% on top of its pre-existing 44%, on a non-diluted basis. As of 31 January 2022, further remaining Glovo shareholders have adhered to the transaction on the same terms, resulting in Delivery Hero's stake in Glovo amounting to approximately 95% (on a non-diluted basis). Both companies are pioneers in the area of quick commerce and their partnership will further drive innovation in the industry, shaping the future of delivery in Europe and beyond. Q4 also saw Delivery Hero scale down operations of foodpanda Germany to a Berlin-based innovation hub and announce plans to divest foodpanda Japan. This rational decision will enable greater opportunities for investment and growth in other key areas.

Driving the future of quick commerce
Delivery Hero continues to invest into the Integrated Verticals segment^[7], with its q-commerce business thriving. New records were achieved with the opening of 213 new Dmarts^[8] in Q4, resulting in an impressive total of 1,074 warehouses worldwide by the end of 2021 and making Delivery Hero's Dmart business a leader in the industry. The company also expanded its Logistics-as-a-Service offering into 25+ markets, with ambitious plans to connect e-commerce, marketplaces, pharmacies and grocery stores with the group's innovative logistics technology - getting products delivered to their customers faster than ever before. The Integrated Verticals segment GMV reaching EUR 347 million (+133% YoY) and segment revenue hitting EUR 322 million (+127% YoY) in Q4 confirm an outstanding upwards trend.

Making the delivery industry more sustainable
Underlining its commitment to sustainability, Delivery Hero received a B rating in its first participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project ("CDP"). CDP is an NGO that assesses a company's environmental effort and performance. This rating places Delivery Hero in a positive position to move forward with new sustainability initiatives and continue to build a company that the next generation can be proud of.

For Group, MENA, Americas and Integrated Verticals, revenues and Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) as well as the respective growth rates are impacted by the Argentinian and/or Lebanese operations qualifying as hyperinflationary economies according to IAS 29 beginning 1 September 2018 and October 2020 respectively.

1. Difference between Total Segment Revenue and the sum of segment revenues is mainly due to inter-segment consolidation for services charged by the Platform businesses to the Integrated Verticals businesses.
