NEW YORK, Jan. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities and shareholder rights law firm, announces that it is investigating the acquisition of Silicon Image, Inc. (NASDAQ: SIMG) ("Silicon Image") on behalf of its' shareholders. Lattice Semiconductor Corporation and Silicon Image announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Lattice will acquire Silicon Image for $7.30 per share in cash.

Our investigation has revealed that the offer price of only $7.30 per share unfairly under values the true going forward inherent value of Silicon Image and that shareholders are not receiving the maximum value for their shares. Indeed, among other things, Silicon Image has over $148 million of cash or $1.91 per share and no long term debt, an analyst has projected the stock is worth at least $8 per share, and the stock has traded above the buyout price within the past month ($7.33 per share), negating any premium that is being offered.

If you are a shareholder of Silicon Image and would like additional information as to how the acquisition may affect your rights as a shareholder, and how you may be eligible to obtain a higher price for your shares, please call us at no cost at:
