(USER): Johnson Fistel Investigates Proposed Sale of UserTesting; Are Shareholders Getting a Fair Deal?
Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of UserTesting, Inc. (NYSE: USER) breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Thoma Bravo and Sunstone.
On October 27, 2022, UserTesting announced it will be acquired by private equity firm Thoma Bravo and Sunstone Partners for $1.3 billion in an all-cash transaction. Under the agreement terms, Thoma Bravo and Sunstone Partners will acquire the company for $7.50 per share.
The investigation concerns whether the UserTesting board failed to satisfy its 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 UserTesting shares of common stock. Nationally recognized, Johnson Fistel is investigating whether the proposed deal represents adequate consideration, especially given one Wall Street analyst had a $12.00 price target on the stock. Additionally, UserTesting just went public in 2021 at $14.00.
If you are a shareholder of UserTesting and believe the proposed buyout price is too low or you’re interested in learning more about the investigation, please contact lead analyst Jim Baker (jimb@johnsonfistel.com) at 619-814-4471. If emailing, please include a phone number.
