NEW YORK, Feb. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP is
investigating claims on behalf of investors of ArthroCare
Corporation ("ArthroCare" or the "Company") (NasdaqGS: ARTC) (ISIN:
US0431361007) (CUSIP: 043136100) concerning the proposed
acquisition of ArthroCare by Smith & Nephew, Inc.
The investigation concerns whether the ArthroCare directors are
breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately shop the
Company and maximize shareholder value. Under the terms of
the agreement, each share of ArthroCare common stock will be
converted into the right to receive $48.25 in cash. However, at least one
analyst set a target price of $60.00
per share.
ArthroCare shareholders seeking more information about this
acquisition are advised to contact Robert
Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or
