Weiss Law is investigating whether (i) LHC Group's board of directors acted in the best interests of Company shareholders in agreeing to the proposed transaction, (ii) the $170.00 per-share merger consideration adequately compensates LHC Group's shareholders, and (iii) all information regarding the sales process and valuation of the transaction will be fully and fairly disclosed. Notably, the merger consideration is below the $172.00 median price target set by analysts, and at least one analyst set a price target for the Company of $190 per share, $20.00 above the per-share merger consideration.
Weiss Law has litigated hundreds of stockholder class and derivative actions for violations of corporate and fiduciary duties. We have recovered over a billion dollars for defrauded clients and obtained important corporate governance relief in many of these cases. If you have information or would like legal advice concerning possible corporate wrongdoing (including insider trading, waste of corporate assets, accounting fraud, or materially misleading information), consumer fraud (including false advertising, defective products, or other deceptive business practices), or anti-trust violations, please email us at stockinfo@weisslawllp.com
