Former United States Securities and Exchange Commission attorney Willie Briscoe and the securities litigation firm of Powers Taylor, LLP are investigating the proposed Ancestry.com buyout for shareholders. Ancestry.com ("ACOM")(NasdaqGS: ACOM) announced that it entered into a definitive merger agreement with a company owned by Permira, a European private equity firm, and co-investors in a deal valued at $1.6 billion. Under the terms of the transaction, ACOM shareholders will receive $32.00 in cash for each share of ACOM common stock owned, well below at least one analyst's estimated value of $45.00 per share.

Shareholder rights attorney Willie Briscoe stated that "our investigation relates to the fairness of the proposed price for ACOM shareholders and whether the Board of Directors is adequately shopping the company in order to obtain the best possible price for the shareholders." Notably, according to analysts with Yahoo! Finance, the true inherent value of ACOM could be as high as $45.00 per share, well above the proposed transaction price. "The proposed lawsuit will seek to obtain the highest possible price for each share of ACOM stock owned."
