Partner Reed Kathrein: IPO Prospectus Scrutiny Centers on Alleged Concealment of Adverse Vendor Payment Trends

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- National shareholder rights law firm Hagens Berman reminds investors that the deadline to move the Court for appointment as lead plaintiff in the securities class action lawsuit against StubHub Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: STUB) is January 23, 2026.

The lawsuit is filed on behalf of investors who purchased shares traceable to the September 2025 Initial Public Offering (IPO). The complaint alleges that StubHub's Registration Statement and Prospectus were materially misleading by failing to disclose crucial "known trends, events, or uncertainties" that were already adversely impacting the company's Free Cash Flow (FCF)—a key metric touted to investors.

"The drop from a positive Free Cash Flow to a negative $4.6 million FCF is a staggering 143% decline that the complaint alleges should have been disclosed to IPO investors as a known trend," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the litigation. "We are specifically focused on the alleged concealment of adverse changes in the timing of payments to vendors, which may have artificially inflated the company's liquidity picture just weeks before the truth was revealed. We urge investors in StubHub who purchased or otherwise acquired company shares pursuant to the IPO to contact the firm now."
