Uber makes an offer for GrubHub - WSJ

May 12, 2020 11:21 AM ETGrubhub Inc. (GRUB)5 Comments
  • Uber (UBER +4.2%) is aggressively pursuing GrubHub (GRUB +24.4%), according to The Wall Street Journal.
  • The company approached GrubHub earlier this year and talks are still going on with an offer on the table.
  • Consolidation within the online food delivery sector has been highly-anticipated this year, with DoorDash (DOORD) and Postmates (POSTM) also in the speculation mix. Underlying the discussions is the impact of a huge surge in demand and costs amid the pandemic.
  • Previously: GrubHub jumps on report of Uber interest (May 12)

:gucci: Where is Uber getting all of this money? They had to pull out of 8 markets and are burning through money fast.


so uber just laid off 14% of their workforce, and post 10 figure losses each year, yet they still have money to acquire other companies?

who's funding such an unprofitable company?

They just laid off a double digit % of employees
So you spend money to acquire another company and almost certainly.....lay off workers from that company

It makes perfect sense when you think about it and it will happen
