Sportradar Group's analyst price target held steady at $32.97 as analysts remain bullish on technology-led margin improvements, international expansion, and U.S. legalization potential, which offset sector headwinds and near-term estimate revisions.
Analyst Commentary
- Bullish analysts cite continuous improvement in internal technology platforms and operational enhancements, including advanced offerings like player props and expanded markets, which are supporting gaming margins and positioning for higher seasonal highs.

- The core business is outperforming guidance even amid near-term foreign exchange headwinds, reflecting resilience and strong execution.
- Increased credit is being given for the growth potential from strategic deals like IMG Arena, as well as the company’s robust growth profile justifying higher valuation multiples despite tempered near-term estimates.
- Major analysts see substantial opportunity in further U.S. state legalization, the rise of in-play betting, international expansion, and the underappreciated near-term and long-term value in the U.S. market, particularly if OSB is legalized in large states like California and Texas.
