Investigation for Investors over Takeover of Accuride Corporation (NYSE:ACW) Announced

An investigation on behalf of investors of Accuride Corporation (NYSE:ACW) in connection with the proposed takeover was announced and NYSE:ACW stockholders should contact the Shareholders Foundation.

 

San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/15/2016 -- An investigation on behalf of investors, who currently hold shares of Accuride Corporation (NYSE:ACW), was announced concerning whether the takeover of Accuride Corporation. For $2.58 per share is unfair to NYSE:ACW stockholders.

Investors who purchased shares of Accuride Corporation (NYSE:ACW) and currently hold any of those NYSE:ACW shares have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation at mail@shareholdersfoundation.com or call 858-779-1554.

The investigation by a law firm concerns whether certain officers and directors of Accuride Corporation breached their fiduciary duties owed to NYSE:ACW investors in connection with the proposed acquisition.

On September 2, 2016, Accuride Corporation (NYSE:ACW) announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by funds managed by private equity firm Crestview Partners for $2.58 per share in cash.

However, given that investment funds affiliated with Cetus Capital LLC, who collectively hold approximately 17 percent of the outstanding Accuride shares, have already entered into a customary voting agreement to support the Crestview transaction, the investigation concerns whether the offer is unfair to NYSE:ACW stockholders. More specifically, the investigation concerns whether the Accuride Board of Directors undertook an adequate sales process, adequately shopped the company before entering into the transaction, maximized shareholder value by negotiating the best price, and acted in the shareholders' best interests in connection with the proposed sale.

Shares of Accuride Corporation (NYSE:ACW) closed on September 14, 2016, at $2.54 per share.

Those who are current investors in Accuride Corporation shares have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation.
