Meituan Funding Rounds

DateStageInvestorsRaisedValuationRev. MultipleDeal Summary
Oct-17Series FTencent; Booking Holdings$4B$30BMeituan-Dianping, China's largest provider of on-demand online services including food delivery, restaurant bookings, movie tickets, hotels, travel packages, and more, raised $4 billion in October 2017 led by Tencent with participation from Booking Holdings (Priceline Group) and Sequoia Capital, achieving a post-money valuation of $30 billion. This round followed the 2015 merger of Meituan and Dianping valued at $15 billion. By 2017, the company reported total revenue of $5.4 billion, 320 million active buyers, and over 4 million merchants. The funding supported investments in AI-based services and drone-delivery technology amid competition from Alibaba-backed Ele.me. Less than a year later, Meituan's valuation rose to $30 billion in its latest pre-IPO round, preceding a Hong Kong IPO at higher valuations.

Jan-15Series DHillhouse Investment$700M$7BMeituan, known as China's leading group deals site and often called the Groupon of China, raised $700 million in a funding round announced on January 19, 2015, at a $7 billion valuation. Hillhouse Capital participated in this D-round, as later referenced in reports on their investments in Meituan's D- and E-rounds between 2015 and 2016. Previous rounds included a $300 million Series C eight months prior from Alibaba, Sequoia, and General Atlantic, building on earlier funding from Sequoia and Alibaba. The company had achieved breakeven in 2013 and projected to double its revenue to 40 billion yuan (about $6.4 billion) in 2014 from 16 billion yuan the prior year. This positioned Meituan strongly in China's group buying market, valued at 22.96 billion RMB ($3.74 billion) in Q3 2014, amid competition from Dianping.com (backed by Tencent), Nuomi, and 55tuan. Post-round developments saw Meituan merge with Dianping in late 2015 at a $15 billion valuation, forming China Internet Plus Group, which raised additional funding including $2.8 billion at an $18 billion post-money valuation from Tencent and others. Hillhouse's involvement continued into later rounds, such as a $3.3 billion E-round in 2016, ahead of Meituan Dianping's 2018 Hong Kong IPO.
May-14Series CGeneral Atlantic; Alibaba Group; HSG$300M$4BIn May 2014, global growth equity firm General Atlantic led a $300 million Series C funding round in Meituan, with two other investors participating, among them Alibaba Group and HSG. The round gave the Chinese group-buying platform capital to expand its local services marketplace beyond deal-of-the-day vouchers. Meituan had received initial funding of $12 million from Sequoia Capital and by 2014 accounted for about 60% of the market share of deal-of-the-day group-buying websites in China. The company later merged with its rival Dianping in October 2015 to form Meituan Dianping. Meituan operates one of the largest local services e-commerce marketplaces in China, connecting consumers with merchants for dining, entertainment and delivery.
