Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates Claims on Behalf of Investors of Caliper Life Sciences, Inc.


NEW YORK, Sept. 8, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pomerantz Haudek Grossman & Gross LLP is investigating potential claims on behalf of investors of Caliper Life Sciences, Inc. ("Caliper" or the "Company") relating to potential breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by its Board of Directors arising from the Company's acquisition by PerkinElmer, Inc. in a deal valued at approximately $600 million.

The investigation concerns whether the Company's Board of Directors is breaching its fiduciary duties by failing to adequately shop the Company and maximize shareholder value. Under the terms of the agreement, Caliper shareholders would receive $10.50 per share in cash. However, the shareholder price may not adequately reflect the Company's $34 million cash holdings or its marked 24% growth for the first half of 2011.

Shareholders of Caliper seeking more information about this acquisition are advised to contact Gustavo Bruckner, Esq. at gfbruckner@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or toll free at 888-476-6529, ext. 302. Shareholders may also contact Rachelle R. Boyle at 212-661-1100, ext. 237.
