  • Sportradar Group (SRAD) Share Price Weakness Highlights Valuation Debate
    February 2, 2026, 3:29 PM EST. Sportradar Group (NasdaqGS:SRAD) has posted sharp share price declines, with a 22.34% drop over one month and 29.20% over three months, despite a positive three-year shareholder return of 38.88%. Trading at $18.11, well below the $32.61 narrative fair value based on earnings and cash flow forecasts, the stock faces questions about whether recent weakness offers a buying opportunity or reflects market skepticism over growth prospects. Increased demand for real-time sports data and premium products is driving revenue of €1.23 billion and net income near €95 million, supporting optimistic forecasts. However, Sportradar's high price-to-earnings ratio of 48.1x exceeds peers and industry averages, indicating valuation risk amid market sentiment shifts. Investors weigh growth potential against competition and contract renewal uncertainties.
