On October 2, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the outstanding equity interests of Deliveroo plc (“Deliveroo”), which was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition will strengthen the Company’s position as a leading global platform in local commerce by enhancing its capabilities to better serve consumers, merchants, and Dashers. The Company’s acquisition-related costs were $58 million and all costs were recorded as general and administrative expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations during the period in which they were incurred. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for Deliveroo was $3,724 million, which consisted of the following (in millions):

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had settled the consideration payable. In connection with the acquisition, substantially all of the outstanding and unvested equity awards of Deliveroo were replaced with DoorDash RSUs. The acquisition date fair value of the replacement equity awards was $80 million, of which $2 million is included in the purchase consideration.
The total purchase consideration of the Deliveroo acquisition was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, based upon their respective fair values as of the date of the acquisition. The Company recorded $1,987 million of goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired. Goodwill is primarily attributed to the assembled workforce and anticipated synergies from the potential future growth of the Company’s and Deliveroo’s platforms and the expected strategic advantages from combining the Company’s and Deliveroo’s geographical footprint and operations. The goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition of Deliveroo is not deductible for tax purposes. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s best estimates, judgments and assumptions, and are considered preliminary and subject to change within the measurement period, including potential adjustments primarily related to tax reserves and other accrued liabilities, as additional information is received. The Company expects to finalize the allocation of the purchase price as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the acquisition date when the measurement period ends.
