Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. is investigating potential claims on behalf of Electro Rent Corporation (NASDAQ:ELRC) investors concerning the proposed acquisition of the company by Platinum Equity.

The investigation concerns whether Electro Rent’s board of directors failed to adequately shop the company and obtain the best possible value for Electro Rent stockholders before entering into a definitive merger agreement with Platinum Equity. Under the terms of the agreement, Electro Rent stockholders will receive $13.12 in cash for each Electro Rent share.

In conjunction with the agreement, Electro Rent will not be paying its next quarterly common stock dividend, scheduled for July 2016. Further, certain insiders who collectively own approximately 29% of the company’s outstanding shares have already agreed to tender their shares.
