SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brodsky & Smith, LLC Announces an Investigation of The Board of Directors of Sequenom, Inc. -SQNM

BALA CYNWYD, Pa., July 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Sequenom, Inc. ("Sequenom" or "the Company") (Nasdaq- SQNM-News) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the sale of the Company to Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings ("Lab Corp.").

Under the terms of the transaction, Sequenom shareholders will receive only $2.40 in cash for each share of Sequenom stock they own. The investigation concerns whether the Board of  Sequenom breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders and whether Lab Corp. is underpaying for the Company. The transaction may undervalue the Company and would result in a loss for many long-term Sequenom shareholders. For example, Sequenom stock traded at $4.65 per share on May 4, 2015 and traded at $3.20 per share as recently as July 17, 2015. In addition, the transaction may undervalue the molecular diagnostic testing services that Sequenom develops and commercializes for the oncology market.
