NEW YORK, Oct. 13, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pomerantz Haudek Grossman & Gross LLP is investigating potential claims on behalf of investors of Harbin Electric, Inc.

Under the terms of the proposal, Yang and his affiliates would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Harbin common stock not currently owned by them for $24.00 per share in cash. Yang currently owns 31.1% of Harbin's outstanding shares. The investigation is focused on the potential unfairness of the price to the Company's shareholders and the process by which the board of directors is considering the transaction.
