WeissLaw LLP: RPX Corp. Acquisition May Not Be In The Best Interests of RPXC shareholders

NEW YORK, May 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- WeissLaw LLP is investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the Board of Directors of RPX Corp. ("RPXC" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: RPXC) in connection with the proposed acquisition of the Company by HGGC, a middle-market private equity firm.  Under the terms of the acquisition agreement RPXC shareholders will receive $10.50 in cash for each share they own. 

WeissLaw is investigating whether RPXC's Board acted to maximize shareholder value prior to entering into the agreement.  Notably, at least one analyst set a target price of $16.00 per share, or $5.50 above the offer price. 

Given these facts, WeissLaw is investigating whether RPXC's Board acted in the best interests of RPXC's public shareholders to maximize shareholder value prior to entering into the agreement.  If you own RPXC shares and would like more information about your rights or our investigation, or if you have information to share with us, please contact Joshua Rubin by telephone at [phone] or by email at [e-mail].
