SAN DIEGO, May 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson & Weaver, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of Memorial Resource Development Corp. (NASDAQ: MRD) breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Range Resources Corporation (NYSE: RRC).
Additional Information:
Memorial Resource is an independent natural gas and oil company that engages in the acquisition, exploitation and development of natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil properties primarily in North Louisiana.
On May 16, 2016, Memorial Resource announced it had signed a definitive merger agreement with Range Resources. Under the definitive agreement, Memorial Resource shareholders will receive 0.375 shares of Range Resources common stock for each share of Memorial Resource common stock held. Based on the Range closing price on May 13, 2016, the transaction has an implied value to Memorial Resource shareholders of $15.75 per share. Memorial Resource shareholders will be subject to the future volatility and price fluctuation of the common stock of Range Resources.
The investigation concerns whether the Memorial Resource 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 Memorial Resource shares of common stock. Nationally recognized Johnson & Weaver is investigating whether the proposed deal price represents adequate consideration; especially given that the average price target for twenty-two Wall Street analyst is $17.75.
