Staar Surgical rejects unsolicited bid

MONROVIA, Calif, July 6 (Reuters) - Staar Surgical Co. (Nasdaq:STAA - news) said Tuesday its board has rejected an unsolicited bid from an unnamed company for between 51 and 100 percent of the company's outstanding shares at $15.00 cash per share.

The company initially disclosed the offer on June 28.

Staar, a refractive, cataract and glaucoma surgery device maker, said the offer was inadequate and not in the best interests of shareholders.

Shares of Monrovia, Calif-based Staar closed on Friday at $13-1/2 on the Nasdaq.

Well, that was interesting, wasn't it. Stock price sure went up before disclosure of the offer. Hopefully it will at least stick up her at 13.5

This board is getting too quiet.
