We are investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the board of directors of SharpSpring, Inc. (“SharpSpring” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SHSP) in connection with the proposed acquisition of the Company by Constant Contact, an established leader in online marketing, backed by Clearlake Capital Group, L.P.  Under the terms of the merger agreement, the Company’s shareholders will receive $17.10 per share in cash for each share of SharpSpring common stock that they hold.  The transaction is valued at approximately $240 million.

WeissLaw LLP is investigating whether (i) SharpSpring’s board of directors acted in the best interests of Company shareholders in agreeing to the proposed transaction, (ii) the $17.10 per-share merger consideration adequately compensates SharpSpring’s shareholders, and (iii) all information regarding the sales process and valuation of the transaction will be fully and fairly disclosed.  Notably, multiple analysts have set price targets above the merger consideration with a median price target of $20.00 and a high target of $25.00.  

WeissLaw LLP has litigated hundreds of stockholder class and derivative actions for violations of corporate and fiduciary duties.  We have recovered over a billion dollars for defrauded clients and obtained important corporate governance relief in many of these cases.  If you have information or would like legal advice concerning possible corporate wrongdoing (including insider trading, waste of corporate assets, accounting fraud, or materially misleading information), consumer fraud (including false advertising, defective products, or other deceptive business practices), or anti-trust violations, please email us at stockinfo@weisslawllp.com
