NEW YORK -- (Business Wire)

Pomerantz Haudek Grossman & Gross LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Imperial Sugar Company (“Imperial Sugar” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: IPSU) (ISIN: US4530962087) concerning the proposed acquisition of Imperial Sugar by Louis Dreyfus Commodities LLC in a cash transaction valued at approximately $203 million.

The investigation concerns whether the Imperial Sugar directors are breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately shop the Company and maximize shareholder value. Under the terms of the agreement, Imperial Sugar shareholders would receive $6.35 in cash per share of Imperial Sugar common stock. However, Imperial Sugar stock has traded as high as $20.00 in the last year. Additionally, the price to revenue multiple is below that of comparable transactions.

Imperial Sugar shareholders seeking more information about this acquisition are advised to contact Rebecca Jarmon at rjarmon@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or 888-476-6529, ext. 314.
