Event Summary

Sportradar is facing multiple securities fraud class-action lawsuits from law firms including Pomerantz LLP, Bernstein Liebhard LLP, Kahn Swick & Foti, Rosen Law Firm, and Hagens Berman. These lawsuits stem from investigative reports published by Muddy Waters Research and Callisto Research on April 22, 2026. The reports allege that Sportradar's business model relies on illegal gambling operators, contradicting the company's claims of strict legal and regulatory compliance. Muddy Waters Research estimated that illegal operators contribute 20-40% of Sportradar's total revenues, while Callisto Research found evidence that over a third of platforms Sportradar serves operate illegally. These allegations caused Sportradar's stock price to fall by 22.6%, or $3.80 per share, on April 22, 2026. Investors who purchased Sportradar Class A ordinary shares between November 7, 2024, and April 21, 2026, have until July 17, 2026, to file as lead plaintiffs in these lawsuits.
