PWSC INVESTIGATION NOTIFICATION: BFA Law notified

NEW YORK, July 1, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Top law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP is investigating Bain Capital’s acquisition of PowerSchool Holdings, Inc. (“PowerSchool”) (NYSE: PWSC).

If you have invested in PowerSchool, you can get more information at: https://www.bfalaw.com/cases/powerschool-holdings-inc-investigation.

Why is PowerSchool being studied by BFA Law?

On June 7, 2024, PowerSchool publicly announced that it had signed a merger agreement to be acquired by Bain Capital, pursuant to which PowerSchool shareholders will receive $22.80 per share in cash. Minority shareholders will have no say in the transaction as PowerSchool’s majority shareholders, Vista Equity Partners (“Vista”) and Onex Partners Manager LP (“Onex”), have already consented in writing to the merger agreement.

PowerSchool is controlled by Vista and Onex, which collectively own over 70% of PowerSchool’s stock. According to the merger announcement, Vista and Onex will transfer a portion of their equity interests in the company upon merger closing. BFA Law is currently investigating whether Vista and Onex’s transfer resulted in Bain Capital offering an unfair price to acquire PowerSchool. The question is particularly relevant because the merger price of $22.80 per share in cash is well below analysts’ price targets, which are as high as $31.

BFA Law is concerned that Vista and Onex, as well as members of PowerSchool’s board of directors, may have breached their fiduciary duty by agreeing to an unfair merger transaction in favor of the majority shareholders.

Shareholders are encouraged to submit their information to learn about their rights.
