Block & Leviton LLP Investigates Archipelago Learning, Inc.'s Board of Directors for Possible Breaches of Fiduciary Duty
BOSTON, March 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Block & Leviton LLP (www.blockesq.com), a Boston-based law firm representing investors nationwide, has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duties by the Board of Directors of Archipelago Learning, Inc. ("Archipelago" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ARCL) with regards to the proposed acquisition of the Company by PLATO Learning, a portfolio company of Thoma Bravo LLC. The transaction is for $11.10 per share, or a net purchase price of $291 million.
Block & Leviton's investigation seeks to determine, among other things, whether Archipelago's Directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value in the proposed transaction. The offer price of $11.10 per share represents only a 17 percent premium over Archipelago's average daily share price for the last year. At least one industry analyst had recently set a target price of $12.00 per share for the Company's shares.
If you are an Archipelago shareholder and have questions about your legal rights, please contact Mark Delaney at (617) 398-5650 or email him at [email protected].
