NEW YORK, Aug. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of Merge Healthcare Incorporated ("Merge" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:MRGE) for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the sale of the Company to IBM for approximately $1 billion in a cash transaction. 

The Company's stockholders will only receive $7.13 for each share of Company common stock they own. However, the offer represents a negligible premium compared to the opening price of $7.09 on August 10, 2015.

The investigation focuses on whether Merge's Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders by failing to conduct a fair sales process and whether and by how much this proposed transaction undervalues the Company to the detriment of Merge's shareholders.
