San Diego, California--(Newsfile Corp. - March 15, 2022) - Johnson Fistel, LLP is investigating potential claims on behalf of DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ: DKNG) against certain of its officers and directors.
A class action lawsuit was recently filed against DraftKings. According to the case, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (1) SBTech (Global) Limited ("SBTech") had a history of unlawful operations; (2) accordingly, DraftKings' merger with SBTech exposed the Company to dealings in black-market gaming; (3) the foregoing increased the Company's regulatory and criminal risks with respect to these transactions; (4) as a result of all the foregoing, the Company's revenues were derived, in part, from unlawful conduct and thus unsustainable; (5) accordingly, the benefits of the business combination were overstated; and (6) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
If you are a current, long-term shareholder of DraftKings holding shares before December 23, 2019, you may have standing to hold DraftKings harmless from the alleged harm caused by the Company's officers and directors by making them personally responsible. You may also be able to assist in reforming the Company's corporate governance to prevent future wrongdoing.
