  • Hagens Berman launched a separate review Thursday after research firms accused the company of misleading investors about the legality of parts of its business.
  • Johnson Fistel said it is examining whether executives violated federal securities laws, citing questions about a touted four-level know-your-customer program.
  • The April 22, 2026 reports by Muddy Waters and Callisto alleged Sportradar aided illegal or unlicensed bookmakers and said exposure to such operators could reach 20% to 40% of revenue.
