Deliveroo halts buyback as DoorDash cooks up a deal

The takeaway delivery giant had announced the programme, which would have increased shareholder returns to £550m since 2023, in its full-year results in March.

However, Deliveroo noted that it may resume the programme at a later date.

On Friday, the company confirmed that it had received a takeover offer from DoorDash earlier in the month, marking the US giant's latest acquisition move since its £5.2 billion purchase of Finnish delivery firm Wolt in 2021.

Deliveroo's share price surged over 15% in early trading yesterday following the announcement late on Friday.
