Delivery Hero’s Middle Eastern subsidiary Talabat made its debut on the Dubai Financial Market, marking the region’s largest IPO this year with proceeds of approximately two billion euros through a 20% stake sale. The listing witnessed a volatile start, with shares initially jumping 7.5% to 1.72 dirham before retreating below the issue price of 1.60 dirham to 1.49 dirham.
