Levi & Korsinsky, LLP Investigates Possible Breach of Fiduciary Duty by the Board of ExpressJet Holdings Inc. - XJT
Levi & Korsinsky is investigating the Board of Directors of ExpressJet Holdings Inc. ("ExpressJet" or the "Company") (NYSE: XJT) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with their attempt to sell the Company to SkyWest Inc. ("SkyWest") (NasdaqGS: SKYW).
- New York, NY (1888PressRelease) August 05, 2010 - Under the terms of the transaction, ExpressJet shareholders will receive $6.75 in cash for each ExpressJet share of common stock they own for a total transaction value of approximately $133 million.
The investigation concerns whether the ExpressJet Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to ExpressJet stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether SkyWest is underpaying for ExpressJet shares, thus unlawfully harming ExpressJet stockholders. In particular, at least one analyst set a price target for ExpressJet stock at $8.00 per share and, for the most recent quarter, the Company reported a book value of $11.18 per share.
