SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brodsky & Smith, LLC Announces Investigation of The Board of Directors of First Security Group, Inc.

BALA CYNWYD, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of First Security Group, Inc. ("First Security" or "the Company") FSGI for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the sale of the Company to Atlantic Capital Bancshares, Inc. ("Atlantic").

Click here to learn more about the investigation http://brodsky-smith.com/908-fsgi-first-security-group-inc.html, or call: 877-534-2590. There is no cost or obligation to you.

Under the terms of the transaction, First Security shareholders will receive either only $2.35 in cash or 0.188 of a share of Atlantic common stock for each share of First Security stock they own. The investigation concerns whether the Board of First Security breached their fiduciary duties to stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before agreeing to enter into this transaction, and whether Atlantic is underpaying for First Security. The transaction may undervalue First Security and will result in loss or no real gain for many First Security shareholders. For example, First Security stock traded at $5.87 per share on May 10, 2013 and traded at $2.33 per share as recently as March 19, 2015. In addition, an analyst has set a price target for First Security stock at $2.50 per share.
