INVESTOR ALERT: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Announces the Investigation of Cyan, Inc. (CYNI) Over the Proposed Sale of the Company to Ciena Corporation in a Stock Deal

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Juan E. Monteverde, a partner at Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of Cyan, Inc. ("Cyan" or the "Company") CYNI for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the sale of the Company to Ciena Corporation CIEN for approximately $400 million. Cyan shareholders will receive consideration equal to the value 0.224 shares of Ciena common stock, or approximately $4.75 per share. However, Cyan has historically traded at much higher prices. In fact, Cyan stock traded upwards of $9.00 for most of the fall of 2013 – more than double the current deal price.

The investigation focuses on whether Cyan's Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders by failing to conduct a fair sales process and whether and by how much this proposed transaction undervalues the Company to the detriment of Cyan's shareholders.
