NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading securities and shareholder rights law firm that represents shareholders nationwide, announces that it is investigating the acquisition of Performance Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTIX). On December 13, 2013, it was announced that Sonus Networks Inc. (NASDAQ: SONS) had entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Performance Technologies. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Sonus will acquire Performance Technologies for $3.75 per share or approx. $30 million.
The investigation concerns whether the board of directors of Performance Technologies breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by not engaging in a full and fair process to insure shareholders received the maximum value for their shares, while, at the same time, seeking to benefit themselves for their own self-interests. Indeed, analysts have projected that the going forward inherent value of Performance Technologies is worth at least $4.50 per share (and the stock traded as high as $4.23 per share as recently as November 22, 2013). Further, the company has no debt and approx. $12 million in cash on hand or $1.06 per share.
