Boston, Massachusetts–(Newsfile Corp. – October 4, 2023) – A class action lawsuit has been filed against MaxLinear, Inc. (“MaxLinear”) and certain of its senior executives on behalf of investors that purchased American Depository Shares (“ADSs”) of Silicon Motion Technology Corporation NASDAQ: SIMO. Investors who purchased shares and have lost money are encouraged to contact the firm to learn more about how they might recover those losses.

What is this all about?

The Complaint alleges that the Defendants made allegedly false and misleading statements and omissions of material facts related to MaxLinear and Silicon Motion Technology’s previously announced business combination. Specifically, MaxLinear had decided to terminate the merger due to changed economic conditions even if the merger received approval by China’s State Administration for Market Regulation (“SAMR”), intending to argue that certain merger conditions had not been met by a May 5, 2023 deadline.

On July 26, 2023, the SAMR approved the merger, after which the price of Silicon Motion Technology’s ADS’s nearly doubled from the prior day’s closing price. Later that day, MaxLinear announced it was terminating the merger. Silicon Motion Technology ADSs dropped more than 40% in intraday trading on July 27, 2023.

Who is eligible?

Anyone who purchased Silicon Motion Technology ADS between June 6, 2023 and July 26, 2023, and has lost money may be eligible, whether or not they have sold their investment. Investors should contact Block & Leviton to learn more.
