Wolf Popper LLP Investigates Claims That the Proposed Acquisition of Micrel, Inc. May Not Be In the Best Interests of Its Investors
NEW YORK, May 11, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Wolf Popper LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors in Micrel, Inc. ("Micrel") (NASDAQ: MCRL), concerning the proposed acquisition of Micrel by Microchip Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCHP). Micrel shareholders seeking more information about this acquisition can contact Carl Stine at (212) 759-4600 or [email protected].
The investigation concerns whether Micrel's directors are breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately maximize shareholder value. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, Micrel's shareholders will elect to receive $14.00 per share in either cash or shares of Microchip common stock. The proposed transaction has a total equity value of approximately $839 million. However, the offer price is significantly below Micrel's 52 week high of $15.63 per share and below an analyst's price target of $15.00 per share.
Wolf Popper LLP has extensive experience representing investors in mergers and acquisition lawsuits and has successfully ensured that investors receive the maximum compensation. Twelve Wolf Popper attorneys were named Rising Stars or Super Lawyers in the 2014 Super Lawyers New York City Metro Edition, including Wolf Popper partner Carl Stine, who was included in the Super Lawyers Top 100 List for the New York City Metro area.
