StubHub Investors Face Jan. 23 Lead-Plaintiff Deadline in IPO Disclosure Lawsuits
Plaintiffs contend the offering documents omitted vendor-payment timing problems that undermined cash generation.
Overview
- Multiple national law firms have announced filings or investigations and are urging purchasers in the September 2025 IPO to seek lead-plaintiff status by January 23, 2026.
- Cases are pending in the Southern District of New York, including Salabaj v. StubHub Holdings, Inc., No. 25-cv-09776, alleging Securities Act violations.
- The complaints assert StubHub failed to disclose shifts in the timing of payments to vendors that materially depressed free cash flow, including trailing 12 months figures.
- On November 13, 2025, StubHub reported free cash flow of negative $4.6 million and net cash from operations of $3.8 million, attributing the decline primarily to payment-timing changes.
- Following the disclosure, the shares fell about 20.9% to $14.87 on November 14, 2025, and later traded as low as $10.31, roughly 56% below the $23.50 IPO price.
