WeissLaw LLP Files Class Action Lawsuit Against Numerex Corp.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24, 2017

On August 3, 2017, Numerex and Sierra Wireless announced that they had entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Sierra Wireless will acquire all outstanding shares of Numerex in a stock-for-stock merger transaction (the "Transaction"). The equity value of the Transaction is approximately $107 million based on Sierra Wireless' closing stock price on August 1, 2017 of $29.65 per share. Under the terms of the agreement, Numerex shareholders will receive a fixed exchange ratio of 0.1800 common shares of Sierra Wireless for each share of Numerex common stock.

The plaintiff is represented by WeissLaw, which has expertise in prosecuting investor class actions and extensive experience in actions involving financial fraud.  The complaint seeks injunctive relief on behalf of the named plaintiff and all Numerex shareholders.  The complaint alleges that in an attempt to secure shareholder approval for the merger, the defendants filed a materially false and/or misleading Registration Statement with the SEC in violation of the Exchange Act. The omitted and/or misrepresented information is believed to be material to Numerex shareholders' ability to make an informed decision whether to approve the Transaction.

Rubin of WeissLaw at 888.593.4771, or by e-mail at stockinfo@weisslawllp.com.  Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
