The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Sportradar Group AG (“Sportradar” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SRAD) Class A ordinary shares between November 7, 2024, and April 21, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Sportradar investors have until July 17, 2026 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

What Happened?

On April 22, 2026, Muddy Waters Research released a report alleging, among other things, that Sportradar “has actively aided and abetted illegal gambling across the world’s black and grey markets — not as an accident or an oversight, but as a business strategy.” Specifically, the report stated that research had “documented nearly 50 clients who we deem to be operating illegally— including seven Russian sportsbooks, four SEA sportsbooks with confirmed links to Cambodian human trafficking operations, one of whom its own sales team acknowledged was too afraid to attend a trade show for fear of arrest — all actively running directly or indirectly on [Sportradar’s] data infrastructure.”

On this news, Sportradar’s stock price fell $3.80, or 22.6%, to close at $13.04 per share on April 22, 2026, thereby injuring investors.

What Is The Lawsuit About?

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to that: (1) Sportradar intentionally worked with black-market gambling operators to increase its revenues, despite its assurances of strict legal and regulatory compliance and claims that ethics and integrity were crucial for Sportradar’s operations; (2) the Company’s KYC and compliance processes were not as robust as Defendants’ had claimed; and (3) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
