Kirby McInerney LLP is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Supertex, Inc. ("Supertex" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:SUPX) concerning the proposed acquisition of the Company by Microchip Technology Incorporated ("Microchip") (NASDAQ:MCHP). Under the terms of the definitive merger agreement, Supertex shareholders will receive $33.00 in cash for each share of Supertex owned, which represents a total equity value of approximately $394 million.

The investigation concerns whether the Supertex Board of Directors violated its fiduciary duties by agreeing to the proposed transaction and whether the proposed consideration adequately values Supertex's common stock.
