STEVENSON, Md., June 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The securities
litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation,
has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary
duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of
Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. ("Martha Stewart Living" or the "Company") (NYSE:
MSO) relating to the proposed buyout of the Company by Sequential
Brands Group, Inc.
Under the terms of the transaction, Martha Stewart Living shareholders are
anticipated to receive $6.15 per
share in cash and stock. The transaction may undervalue
Martha Stewart Living and may result
in a substantial loss for many shareholders. For
example, according to Yahoo! Finance, at least one Wall
Street analyst has issued a price target for Martha Stewart Living stock at $7.18 per share.
The firm's investigation seeks to determine, among other things,
whether the Company's Board of Directors failed to satisfy their
duties to shareholders, including whether the Board adequately
pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the Board
obtained the best price possible for the Company's shares of common
stock.
If you currently own common stock of Martha Stewart Living and believe that the
proposed buyout price is too low, or you would like to learn more
