Law Firm Kirby McInerney LLP Investigating Potential Claims on Behalf of PetSmart, Inc. Stockholders

Kirby McInerney LLP is investigating potential claims against PetSmart, Inc. (“PetSmart” or the “Company”) PETM concerning the proposed acquisition of the Company by a consortium led by BC Partners, Inc (“BC Partners”). The consortium includes Funds advised by BC Partners (“the BC Funds”), alongside several of its limited partners, including La Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (“La Caisse”) and StepStone. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, PetSmart stockholders will receive $83.00 in cash for each share of PetSmart common stock they own, valuing the transaction at approximately $8.7 billion.

The investigation concerns whether the PetSmart Board of Directors violated its fiduciary duties by agreeing to the proposed transaction and whether the proposed consideration adequately values the Company's common stock.
