Pervasive Software Shareholder Alert: The Briscoe Law Firm and Powers Taylor, LLP Investigate Sale to Actian Corp.

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Former United States Securities and Exchange Commission attorney Willie Briscoe and the securities litigation firm of Powers Taylor, LLP are investigating the sale of Pervasive Software, Inc. (“Pervasive” or “PVSW”) PVSW to Actian Corporation. Under the proposed transaction valued at $161.9 million, Pervasive shareholders will only receive $9.20 in cash per share of PVSW stock owned.

If you are an affected investor, and you want to learn more about the investigation or if you have information that you believe would be helpful to the determination of the fairness of the proposed transaction, contact Zach Groover at Powers Taylor, LLP, toll free (877) 728-9607, via e-mail at zach@powerstaylor.com or Willie Briscoe at The Briscoe Law Firm, PLLC, (214) 706-9314, or via email at WBriscoe@TheBriscoeLawFirm.com. There is no cost or fee to you.

The investigation centers on whether Pervasive shareholders are receiving adequate compensation for their shares in the buyout, whether the transaction undervalues Pervasive stock, and whether Pervasive's board attempted to obtain the highest share price for all shareholders prior to agreeing to the deal. According to shareholder rights attorney Willie Briscoe, “due to the total sale price, the recent performance of the company, and other factors, we believe that the transaction may undervalue Pervasive stock. Our lawsuit will seek to obtain the highest share price for all shareholders.”
