NEW YORK--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Pomerantz Grossman Hufford Dahlstrom & Gross LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Complete Genomics, Inc. (aComplete Genomicsa or the aCompanya) (NASDAQ: GNOM) (ISIN: US20454k1043) concerning the proposed acquisition of Complete Genomics by BGI-Shenzhen in a cash transaction valued at approximately $117.6 million.
The investigation concerns whether the Complete Genomics directors are breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately shop the Company and maximize shareholder value. Under the terms of the agreement, Complete Genomics shareholders would receive $3.15 in cash per share of Complete Genomics common stock. However, the Price to Revenue and Book Value multiples are below that of comparable transactions. Additionally, at least one analyst has set a target price for Complete Genomics shares at $5.00 per share.
Complete Genomics shareholders seeking more information about this acquisition are advised to contact Rebecca Jarmon at [ rjarmon@pomlaw.com ] or 212-661-1100 or 888-476-6529, ext. 314.
