On July 20, 2020, GlobalSCAPE announced that it had signed an agreement to be acquired by HelpSystems for approximately $217 million. Pursuant to the merger agreement, GlobalSCAPE’s stockholders will receive $9.50 in cash for each share of GlobalSCAPE common stock owned. The deal is scheduled to close in the third quarter of 2020.

Bragar Eagel & Squire is concerned that GlobalSCAPE’s board of directors oversaw an unfair process and ultimately agreed to an inadequate deal price. Indeed, GlobalSCAPE common stock has recently traded far above the $9.50 merger consideration. Accordingly, the firm is investigating all relevant aspects of the deal and is committed to securing the best result possible for GlobalSCAPE’s stockholders.
