SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz LLP Investigates Claims That the Merger May Not Be in the Best Interest of Investors of Morgan's Foods, Inc. - MRFD

NEW YORK, April 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Morgan's Foods, Inc. ("Morgan's Foods" or the "Company") MRFD US (CUSIP: 6169002051) concerning the proposed acquisition of Morgan's Foods by Apex Restaurant Management, Inc.

Morgan's Foods shareholders seeking more information about this acquisition are advised to contact Robert Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or 888-476-6529, ext. 237.

The investigation concerns whether the Morgan's Foods directors are breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately shop the Company and maximize shareholder value.  Under the terms of the transaction, Morgan's Foods stockholders will receive $5.00 in cash for each share of Morgan's Foods common stock owned.  However, the Price to EBITDA, EBIT, Revenue, and Total Assets multiples are below the averages of comparable transactions.  Additionally, there are indications that the existing management will stay on with the new company.

Morgan's Foods shareholders seeking more information about this acquisition are advised to contact Robert Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or 888-476-6529, ext. 237.
