WILMINGTON, Del., March 16, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rigrodsky & Long, P.A.:
Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. announces that it has filed a class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware on behalf of holders of CEB Inc. (“CEB”) (NYSE: CEB ) common stock in connection with the proposed acquisition of CEB by Gartner, Inc. and Cobra Acquisition Corp. (collectively, “Gartner”) announced on January 5, 2017 (the “Complaint”). The Complaint, which alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against CEB, its Board of Directors (the “Board”), and Gartner, is captioned Steinberg v. CEB Inc. , Case No. 1:17-cv-00226-LPS (D. Del.).
If you wish to discuss this action or have any questions concerning this notice or your rights or interests, please contact plaintiff’s counsel, Seth D. Rigrodsky or Gina M. Serra at Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. , 2 Righter Parkway, Suite 120, Wilmington, DE 19803, by telephone at (888) 969-4242; by e-mail at info@rl-legal.com ; or at: http://rigrodskylong.com/investigations/ceb-inc-ceb/ .
On January 5, 2017, CEB entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Gartner. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, CEB shareholders will receive $54.00 in cash and 0.2284 shares of Gartner common stock for each share of CEB common stock in a transaction valued at approximately $3.3 billion (the “Proposed Transaction”).
Among other things, the Complaint alleges that, in an attempt to secure shareholder support for the Proposed Transaction, defendants issued materially incomplete disclosures in a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on February 6, 2017. The Registration Statement, which recommends that CEB stockholders vote in favor of the Proposed Transaction, omits material information necessary to enable shareholders to make an informed decision as to how to vote on the Proposed Transaction, including material information with respect to the Company’s financial projections, the opinions and analyses of CEB’s financial advisor, and the background of the Proposed Transaction. The Complaint seeks injunctive and equitable relief and damages on behalf of holders of CEB common stock.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than May 15, 2017. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Any member of the proposed class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
