Is the Proposed Acquisition Best for Lionbridge and Its Shareholders?

Robbins Arroyo LLP's investigation focuses on whether the board of directors at Lionbridge is undertaking a fair process to obtain maximum value and adequately compensate its shareholders.

As an initial matter, the $5.75 merger consideration represents a premium of only 3.20% based on Lionbridge's closing price on December 9, 2016. This premium is significantly below the average one day premium of nearly 38.96% for comparable transactions within the past three years. Further, the $5.75 merger consideration is significantly below the target price of $7.00 set by an analyst at Barrington Research on May 9, 2016, the target price of $6.50 set by an analyst at Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC on November 8, 2016, and the target price of $6.35 set by an analyst at Nobel Financial Group on May 6, 2016. In the last three years, Lionbridge traded as high as $7.50 on February 26, 2014, and most recently traded above the merger consideration – at $5.89 – on November 9, 2015.

Lionbridge shareholders have the option to file a class action lawsuit to ensure the board of directors obtains the best possible price for shareholders and the disclosure of material information.
