NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP (www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation ("GLDD" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: GLDD), concerning whether the board has breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders.
On October 16, 2015, the Company disclosed that its CEO would retire. The same day GLDD disclosed that it was withdrawing previously announced guidance for the 2015 fiscal year.
On October 17, 2015, the Company's Chairman of the Board resigned and the director acting as Chair of the Audit Committee also tendered her resignation. Both resignations were effective as of October 13, 2015.
