EDR INVESTOR ALERT: Bronstein, Gewirtz and Grossman, LLC announces that Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. shareholders with substantial losses have opportunity to lead Class Action lawsuit! Sunday, 22 February 2026 07:00 AM Class Action. NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / February 22, 2026 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC, a nationally recognized investor-rights law firm, announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:EDR) certain of Endeavor's directors, Silver Lake Group, L.L.C. ("Silver Lake") and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "Defendants"). This lawsuit seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws on behalf of all persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired Endeavor Class A common stock between January 15, 2025 and March 24, 2025, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"). Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: bgandg.com/EDR. Endeavor Case Details The Complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: * Defendants represented to unaffiliated public shareholders of Endeavor Class A common stock that the take-private merger (the "Merger") and the $27.50-per-share Merger Consideration were "fair to and in the best interests" of public shareholders; * In reality, Defendants orchestrated a unified scheme-led by Silver Lake and Endeavor insiders-to depress minority bargaining power and the value realizable by unaffiliated public shareholders, while insiders captured future upside through rollovers and other separate benefits; * Defendants structured the Merger to disadvantage minority shareholders by, among other things: * Rejecting a "majority-of-the-minority" vote and instead closing the transaction through controller written consent; * Locking in a fixed $27.50 cash-out Merger Consideration without any collar or contingent value right, and offering only a de minimis dividend that insiders shared with themselves; and * Disseminating a misleading Information Statement on January 15, 2025, which spoke in present tense about "fairness" and serving the "best interests" of unaffiliated shareholders, while relying on a Centerview Partners LLC ("Centerview") fairness opinion frozen "as of" March 2024 and omitting material contemporaneous information necessary to render those assertions not misleading. * As a result, Defendants' statements about the Merger's fairness, process, and benefits were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
