Hedge fund rejects £9bn Just Eat Takeaway merger

Eminence Capital plans to vote against the deal because it ‘grossly undervalues’ Just Eat’s business

A large shareholder in Just Eat announced it would vote against the proposed £9bn tie-up between the British takeaway company and the Amsterdam-based Takeaway.com.

Eminence Capital, the hedge fund that owns 4.4% of Just Eat, said in a statement on Tuesday it plans to vote against the deal as it “grossly undervalues [Just Eat’s] strong portfolio of assets”.
