NEW YORK, Aug. 28, 2017 -- Notice is hereby given that Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP has filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, case No. 1:17-cv-01663, on behalf of shareholders of Sparton Corporation (“Sparton” or the “Company”) (NYSE:SPA) who have been harmed by Sparton’s and its board of directors’ (the “Board”) alleged violations of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) in connection with the proposed merger of the Company with Ultra Electronics Holdings plc (“Ultra Electronics”).
On July 7, 2017, the Board caused the Company to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Proposed Transaction”), under which each share of Sparton common stock will be exchanged for $23.50 in cash.
If you wish to obtain information concerning this action or view a copy of the complaint, you can do so by clicking here: www.faruqilaw.com/SPAnotice.
The complaint alleges that the Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A (the “Proxy”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 4, 2017, violates Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act because it provides materially incomplete and misleading information about the Company and the Proposed Transaction, including information concerning the Company’s financial projections and analysis, on which the Board relied to recommend the Proposed Transaction as fair to Sparton shareholders.
