NEW YORK, Aug. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC announces that a securities class action has been filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts on behalf of those who purchased shares of Microsoft Corporation ("Microsoft or the Company") (NasdaqGS: MSFT), during the period between April 18, 2013 and July 18, 2013, inclusive (the "Class Period").

On July 18, 2013, shares of Microsoft fell $4.04 or 11.4% to close at $31.40 per share after the company announced its financial results for the fiscal 2013 fourth quarter and year end, the periods ended June 30, 2013.
