OMEGA PROTEIN Buyout Alert - National Securities Law Firm Seeks Higher Price for Omega Protein Shareholders in Connection with Proposed Buyout, and Encourages Shareholders to Contact Law Firm for More Information
NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities and shareholder rights law firm, announces that it is investigating the potential sale of Omega Protein Corp. (NYSE: OME) ("Omega" or the "Company") on behalf of its shareholders. Omega announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Cooke Inc. in a cash deal valued at approximately $500 million. Cooke will acquire Omega for $22.00 per share.
Our investigation has determined that the offer price of only $22.00 per share, unfairly under-values the true going forward inherent value of Omega and that shareholders may not be receiving the maximum value for their shares. Indeed, the stock hit a high of $26.99 per share within the past year. The investigation further seeks to determine whether Omega senior management is entering into this deal for their own self-interests to the detriment of the Company's shareholders.
If you are a shareholder of Omega and would like additional information as to how the proposed acquisition may affect your rights as a shareholder, and how you may be eligible to obtain a higher price for your shares, please contact us at no cost at:
