NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz
Grossman Hufford Dahlstrom & Gross LLP is investigating claims
on behalf of investors of Santarus, Inc. ("Santarus" or the
"Company") (NASDAQ: SNTS) (ISIN: US8028173040) (CUSIP: 802817304)
concerning the proposed acquisition of Santarus by Salix
Pharmaceuticals, Ltd.
The investigation concerns whether the Santarus directors are
breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately shop the
Company and maximize shareholder value. Under the terms of
the agreement, Santarus shareholders will receive $32.00 per share in cash for each share of
Santarus common stock. However, the Price to Revenue and Net
Income multiples are below the averages of comparable transactions,
and synergies may not be fully reflected in offered price.
Santarus shareholders seeking more information about this
acquisition are advised to contact Robert
Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or
888-476-6529, ext. 237.
