SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brodsky & Smith, LLC Announces Investigation of The Board of Directors of Electro Rent Corporation

Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Electro Rent Corporation ("Electro” or "the Company") (Nasdaq: ELRC) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the sale of the Company to Platinum Equity LLC (“Platinum”).

Under the terms of the transaction, Electro shareholders will receive only $13.12 in cash for each share of Electro stock they own. The investigation concerns whether the Board of Electro breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders and whether Platinum is underpaying for the Company. The transaction may undervalue the Company and would result in a loss or no real gain for many Electro shareholders. For example, Electro stock traded at $14.12 per share on January 5, 2015 and an analyst has set a price target for Electro stock at $15.00 per share.
