SAN DIEGO, Dec. 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson & Weaver, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of NeuStar, Inc. (NYSE: NSR) breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Golden Gate Capital. NeuStar provides hard-to-replicate data sets and proprietary analytics worldwide.

On December 14, 2016, NeuStar announced it had signed a definitive agreement to be acquired by Golden Gate. Under the terms of the agreement, Golden Gate will acquire NeuStar for $33.50 per share in cash.

The investigation concerns whether the NeuStar board failed to satisfy their duties to the Company shareholders, including whether the board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the board obtained the best price possible for NeuStar stock. Nationally recognized Johnson & Weaver is investigating whether the proposed deal price represents adequate consideration.

If you are a shareholder of NeuStar and believe the proposed buyout price is too low and you're interested in learning more about the investigation or your legal rights and remedies, please contact lead analyst Jim Baker (jimb@johnsonandweaver.com) at 619-814-4471.
