Skillz is a proprietary gaming platform provider for mobile gaming users and developers. It was taken public on December 16, 2020 by a SPAC (special purpose acquisition company) known as Flying Eagle Acquisition Corp. ("FEAC"). A recent lawsuit alleges that the Company falsely represented its business operations, performance metrics, and prospects, including its ability to attract new end-users and the fact that its most lucrative games - accounting for 88% of its revenues - were experiencing decreased usage.

On March 8, 2021, Wolfpack Research released a report alleging that the three games responsible for 88% of Skillz's revenues (21 Blitz, Solitaire Cube, and Blackout Bingo) had all substantially declined - a key fact that defendants had not disclosed. In addition, Wolfpack reported that Skillz has a long history of boasting about "big partnerships" that amounted to nothing, and that its Chief Executive Officer lacked relevant experience. Upon this news, Skillz shares fell by 10.9% to close at $24.45.

Then, on April 19, 2021, Eagle Eye Research posted a report on Twitter accusing the Company of artificially inflating its revenues through incentive Bonus Payments to gamers. This news sent shares declining an additional 6% to a close of $14.11 per share on April 19.
