Law Firm Brower Piven Announces Investigation of NetLogic Microsystems Inc.
STEVENSON, Md.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--The law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty to current shareholders of NetLogic Microsystems Inc. (aNetLogica) (NASDAQ: NETL) and other violations of state law by the board of directors of NetLogic relating to the proposed acquisition of the company by Broadcom Corp. (aBroadcoma). The firma™s investigation seeks to determine, among other things, whether the board breached their fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value.
On September 12, 2011, NetLogic and Broadcom jointly announced that it had entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Broadcom will acquire NetLogic for $50.00 per share in cash. Although the merger price represents approximately a 57% premium, according to Bloomberg, at least one analyst recently set a high price target of $54.00 per share of NetLogic common stock.
