SKULLCANDY (SKUL) ALERT: Johnson & Weaver, LLP Launches an Investigation into the Fairness of Price and Process in Proposed Sale of Skullcandy Inc.; Are Shareholders Getting a Fair Price?

SAN DIEGO, June 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson & Weaver, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of Skullcandy Inc. SKUL breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Incipio LLC.

Additional Information:
Skullcandy designs, markets and distributes audio and gaming products under the Skullcandy and Astro Gaming brands in the United States and internationally.

On June 24, 2016, Skullcandy announced it had signed a definitive merger agreement with Incipio. Under the terms of the agreement, Skullcandy stockholders will receive $5.75 per share in cash.

The investigation concerns whether the Skullcandy 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 Skullcandy shares of common stock. Nationally recognized Johnson & Weaver is investigating whether the proposed deal price represents adequate consideration; especially given that the price target for one Wall Street analyst is $7.00. Additionally, Skullcandy has over $40 million in cash and no long-term debt. The 52-week high for Skullcandy stock is $8.27.

If you are a shareholder of Skullcandy  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 (jimb@johnsonandweaver.com) at 619-814-4471.
