SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brower Piven Commences an Investigation into the Proposed Sale of Apollo Education Group, Inc. and Encourages Investors to Contact the Firm for Additional Information

STEVENSON, Md.--()--The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that it is investigating potential legal claims against the board of directors of Apollo Education Group, Inc. (“Apollo Education” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: APOL) regarding possible breaches of fiduciary duties and other violations of law related to the Company’s entry into an agreement to be acquired by a consortium of investors including: The Vistria Group, LLC; funds affiliated with Apollo Global Management, LLC; and Najafi Companies (collectively, the “Consortium”).

Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of Apollo Education will receive $9.50 in cash for each share of Apollo Education common stock they own. The firm’s investigation seeks to determine, among other things, whether the Company’s Board of Directors failed to satisfy their duties to shareholders, including whether the Board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the Board obtained the best price possible for the Company’s shares of common stock. According to Yahoo! Finance, at least one analyst has issued a price target for Apollo Education stock at $10.00 per share.
