Wolfberg and Landry’s fund also sent a letter to the company’s Board of Directors on February 26 stating that it was concerned by the dismissiveness which Shutterfly is showing towards a potential acquisition offer made by a private equity firm, as relayed in the company’s most recent Form 8-K, filed on February 23. Shutterfly stated that it is not engaged in merger discussions and that it is more interested in its financial results and in finding a new CEO. The full content of the filing can be found below.
