Event Summary

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP is investigating and leading a federal securities class action lawsuit against Sportradar Group AG. The lawsuit alleges that Sportradar and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and misleading statements. Specifically, it claims that Sportradar intentionally collaborated with black-market gambling operators to boost revenues, despite asserting strict legal and regulatory compliance and emphasizing ethics. Investigative reports from Muddy Waters and Callisto Research, published on April 22, 2026, detailed these allegations, estimating that illegal operators contributed 20-40% of Sportradar's total revenues. Following these reports, Sportradar's stock price fell by 22.6% to $13.04 per share on April 22, 2026. The lawsuit covers investors who purchased Sportradar securities between November 7, 2024, and April 21, 2026, with a deadline of July 17, 2026, to seek the role of lead plaintiff.
