SAN DIEGO, March 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson & Weaver, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of Checkpoint Systems, Inc. (NYSE:CKP) breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to CCL Industries Inc.
Additional Information:
Checkpoint manufactures and provides technology-driven, loss prevention, inventory management, and labeling solutions to the retail and apparel industries worldwide.
On March 2, 2016, Checkpoint announced it had signed a definitive merger agreement with CCL. Under the terms of the agreement, CCL will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Checkpoint's common stock for $10.15 per share in cash.
The investigation concerns whether the Checkpoint board failed to satisfy their duties to the Company shareholders, including whether the board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the board obtained the best price possible for Checkpoint shares of common stock. Nationally recognized Johnson & Weaver is investigating whether the proposed deal price represents adequate consideration, especially given one Wall Street analyst has a $13.00 price target on the stock.
If you are a shareholder of Checkpoint and believe the proposed buyout price is too low or you're interested in learning more about the investigation or your legal rights and remedies, please contact lead analyst Jim Baker ([email protected]) at 619-814-4471.
