NEW YORK--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--The Law Offices of Vincent Wong are investigating the Board of Directors of Atheros Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATHR) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the sale of the Company to Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM). Under the terms of the transaction, Atheros shareholders will receive $45 in cash for each share they own for a total transaction value of approximately $3.1 billion.

The investigation concerns whether the Atheros Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Atheros stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether Qualcomm is underpaying for Atheros shares, thereby unlawfully harming Atheros stockholders.
