For a discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Part I, "Item 1A, Risk Factors" and our other filings filed from time to time with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission. These events and uncertainties are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many are beyond the Company's control. The risks described in these reports are not the only risks we face, as additional risks and uncertainties are not currently known or foreseeable or impossible to predict accurately or risks that are beyond the Company's control or deemed immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations in future periods. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events, except as required by law.

Shareholder Alert: The Ademi Firm Investigates Whether WideOpenWest, Inc. Is Obtaining a Fair Price for Its Public Shareholders

MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Ademi Firm is investigating WideOpenWest (NYSE: WOW) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law in its transaction with DigitalBridge Investments. Click here to learn how to join our investigation and obtain additional information or contact us at gademi@ or toll-free: 866-264-3995. There is no cost or obligation to you. Shareholders of WideOpenWest will receive $5.20 per share in cash in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $1.5 billion. Crestview, which currently owns approximately 37% of WideOpenWest's outstanding shares and is the company's largest stockholder, will roll over its existing holdings rather than receive cash. WideOpenWest insiders will receive substantial benefits as part of change of control arrangements. The transaction agreement unreasonably limits competing transactions for WideOpenWest by imposing a significant penalty if WideOpenWest accepts a competing bid. We are investigating the conduct of the WideOpenWest board of directors, and whether they are fulfilling their fiduciary duties to all shareholders. We specialize in shareholder litigation involving buyouts, mergers, and individual shareholder rights. For more information, please feel free to call us. Attorney advertising.
