Johnson & Weaver, LLP Files Class Action Suit Against Power-One, Inc.

Business Wire
Johnson & Weaver, LLP (“Johnson & Weaver”)
(www.johnsonandweaver.com) today announced that it filed a class
action in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of
California on behalf of shareholders of Power-One, Inc.
(“Power-One”), seeking remedies under the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934 (the “Act”).
The complaint charges Power-One and its Board of Directors (the
“Board”) with violations of the Act. On April 22, 2013, the Board
announced its agreement to a merger transaction in which Power-One
will be acquired by Verdi Acquisition Corporation, a wholly owned
subsidiary of ABB Ltd., for $6.35 per share in cash or $1.028
million equity value (the “Merger”).
The complaint alleges the Board filed materially false and
misleading proxy statements describing the Merger with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on May 23, 2013 and June 20,
2013, that were intended to induce Power-One’s shareholders to
approve the Merger. The complaint further alleges that the proposed
consideration to be paid to Power-One’s shareholders in the Merger
is below the fair value of Power-One, and that the members of the
Board breached their fiduciary duties by agreeing to the unfair
Merger, the terms of which include deal protection devices that
prevent alternative transactions.
