Event Summary

Sportradar, a global sports data and technology company, is facing multiple class action lawsuits and investigations for alleged securities fraud. These legal actions stem from reports published by Muddy Waters Research and Callisto Research on April 22, 2026, which accused Sportradar of actively aiding and abetting illegal gambling operations across black and grey markets. The reports claim that 20-40% of Sportradar's total revenues are derived from illegal operators and that the company misrepresented its strict legal and regulatory compliance standards and Know-Your-Customer (KYC) protocols. Following these revelations, Sportradar's stock price plummeted by 22.6%, wiping out over $800 million in market capitalization. Law firms including Pomerantz LLP, Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP, Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC, Kahn Swick & Foti, The Schall Law Firm, Hagens Berman, Rosen Law Firm, Bernstein Liebhard LLP, and The Gross Law Firm are representing investors who suffered losses, with a lead plaintiff deadline set for July 17, 2026. Additionally, three U.S. gambling regulators have reportedly commenced reviews into Sportradar's activities.
