Motorsport Games wins key legal battle in Delaware court

In a significant legal victory, Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ:MSGM), a micro-cap company with a market capitalization of just $3.7 million, secured a favorable ruling in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware on Tuesday. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong balance sheet with more cash than debt, despite recent market challenges. The court granted summary judgment in favor of the company and other defendants in a lawsuit filed by Innovate 2 Corp.

The litigation, titled Innovate 2 Corp. vs. Motorsport Games Inc. et al., case number 1:21-cv-165-SB, revolved around a stock purchase agreement dispute. The court’s decision dismissed all claims against Motorsport Games and its former executives, including the former Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, as well as the former Chief Financial Officer and the Manager of Driven Lifestyle Group LLC.

Additionally, the court ruled in favor of Motorsport Games on its counterclaim for breach of the stock purchase agreement against Innovate 2 Corp. The parties have been instructed to submit a joint status report by March 12, 2025, to address the remaining issues in the case, including the assessment of damages owed to Motorsport Games.

This outcome represents a clear legal triumph for Motorsport Games, a company specializing in prepackaged software services, as it resolves a dispute that has been pending since the initial filing in 2021. The court’s decision to grant summary judgment indicates that the judge found no factual issues requiring a trial, thereby concluding the bulk of the litigation in favor of Motorsport Games.
