The slump follows the abrupt departure of the company's chairman and its top operating executive ahead of the company's fractious annual meeting on Wednesday.

Shareholders, who have seen the stock fall 50% so far in 2022, criticised the company's board for not challenging management decisions enough, including the $7.3 billion purchase of U.S. rival Grubhub in June 2021.

Takeaway founder and CEO Jitse Groen repeated at the meeting he now plans to either sell or find a partner for Grubhub.

Shareholders urged Groen at Wednesday's meeting to consider selling other businesses as well in order to focus on the company's core markets in Europe.
