WILMINGTON, Del., June 30, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Andrews & Springer LLC, a boutique securities class action law firm focused on representing shareholders nationwide, announced today that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of stockholders of Hittite Microwave Corp. ("Hittite" or the "Company") HITT seeking to challenge the Company's recently announced merger.

NO CLASS HAS YET BEEN CERTIFIED IN THE ABOVE ACTION. UNTIL A CLASS IS CERTIFIED, YOU ARE NOT REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL UNLESS YOU RETAIN ONE. YOU MAY ALSO REMAIN AN ABSENT CLASS MEMBER AND DO NOTHING AT THIS POINT. YOU MAY RETAIN COUNSEL OF YOUR CHOICE. 

According to the lawsuit, on June 9, 2014, Hittite and Analog Devices, Inc. ("Analog") ADI announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Analog would acquire Hittite in a merger valued at roughly $2 billion. As a result of the merger, Hittite shareholders are only anticipated to receive $78 per share in cash in exchange for each share of Hittite they own.

The complaint, which was filed on June 12, 2014, discusses Hittite's promising future as highlighted by the Company's President and CEO Richard Hess. The complaint further alleges, however, "if the Proposed Transaction closes, Hittite investors such as Plaintiff will be denied the growth opportunity the Company has been touting."

The markets today have expressed concern over the merger consideration. As of today, Hittite closed at $78.02 per share, $.02 cents above the $78 per share merger consideration.
