NEW YORK, Aug. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Analogic Corporation, ("Analogic" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ALOG) for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Altaris Capital Partners, LLC ("Altaris"). Investors who held common stock on May 11, 2018, the record date to vote on the Agreement and Plan of Merger, are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: www.bgandg.com/alog.
This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
On April 10, 2018, Analogic revealed that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Altaris, under which each share of Analogic common stock would be converted into the right to receive $84 in cash (the "Transaction"). The Transaction consideration signified a 12.5% discount to Analogic stock's $96.05 per share closing price right before the Transaction was publicized. On May 16, 2018, defendants filed a Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A with the SEC (the "Proxy") to solicit shareholder approval of the Transaction.
According to the complaint, defendants made false and/or misleading statements in the Proxy about the merger process and specifically misrepresented material information in connection with: (1) the sales process for the Company; and (2) certain financial forecasts prepared by Analogic and relied upon by Citi. The complaint continues to allege that by including the statements in the Proxy, defendants encouraged shareholders to accept to the Board's recommendation to vote in favor of the unfairly priced Transaction. Following the uninformed shareholder vote, defendants completed the Transaction on June 22, 2018.
