SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brower Piven Announces The Investigation Of Pike Corporation In Connection With The Proposed Sale Of The Company To Court Square Capital Partners


STEVENSON, Md. --(Business Wire)--

The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of Pike Corporation ("Pike" or the "Company") (NYSE: PIKE) relating to the proposed buyout of the Company by investment firm Court Square Capital Partners ("Court Square").

On August 4, 2014, Pike announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Court Square, in partnership with J. Eric Pike, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, will acquire the Company in a transaction in which each of the Company's shareholders will receive $12.00 in cash for each share of the Pike common tock they hold.



The firm's investigation seeks to determine, among other things, whether the Company's Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value before agreeing to enter into the transaction, and whether Court Square is underpaying for Pike shares. In particular, at least one analyst has set a price target for Pike stock at $13.00 per share.
