Delivery Hero SE, the world's leading local delivery platform, concluded its ordinary 2026 Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Berlin today, with shareholders voting to approve all resolutions on the agenda as proposed by the Management Board and Supervisory Board.
The AGM focused on strengthening the Supervisory Board, approving a modernized compensation system, and transitioning auditors. Scott Ferguson was re-elected as a shareholder representative for a term until the 2027 AGM, and Roger Rabalais was re-elected as an independent member for a term until the 2029 AGM, following his court appointment in April 2026. The Supervisory Board intends to re-elect Rabalais as Chairman of the Audit Committee, leveraging his expertise in financial and risk oversight for the global Group.
Kristin Skogen Lund, Chair of the Supervisory Board, emphasized the value of the re-elections: “Scott’s investor perspective and Roger’s deep experience in corporate finance and the delivery sector are key assets for Delivery Hero. Together with the other experienced members of the Supervisory Board, we maintain high-caliber independent oversight capabilities that align closely with our commitment to robust corporate governance.”
CEO and Co-Founder Niklas Ostberg noted the significance of the shareholder support: “The clear approval of today's resolutions demonstrates our shareholders' strong support of Delivery Hero's strategy. We remain focused on our transition to the Everyday App, executing on our Strategic Review, maintaining our very strong operational momentum, and working towards our financial goals with discipline to create long-term value.”
Shareholders ratified the modernized Management Board Compensation System 2026, designed to align with long-term strategic objectives, regulatory requirements, and investor expectations. The new system provides a more stringent incentive structure with a stronger capital market focus and increased transparency.
In line with regulatory rotation guidelines, PricewaterhouseCoopers GmbH was appointed as the new auditor for the Group starting in the 2027 financial year, ensuring planning certainty and a seamless transition. KPMG AG was ratified as the auditor for the current 2026 financial year. Additionally, the AGM formally approved the discharges of all Management Board and Supervisory Board members in office during the 2025 financial year.
The complete voting results will be published on Delivery Hero’s Investor Relations website shortly.
