The investigations by law firms concern whether certain officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to NYSE:DGI investors in connection with the proposed acquisition.
On May 4, 2012, DigitalGlobe, Inc. (NYSE: DGI) confirmed that it has received an unsolicited proposal from GeoEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEOY) to acquire DigitalGlobe, Inc for $17.00 per share in a combination of cash and stock. Under the proposed terms, DigitalGlobe shareholders would receive $17.00 per share in total consideration payable as $8.50 per share in cash and $8.50 in GeoEye, Inc.stock. Alternatively, GeoEye, Inc. would consider restructuring their proposal to increase the cash consideration up to 100% of the purchase price or, in the alternative, reducing the cash consideration and increasing the stock portion of their offer.
Following the takeover news shares of DigitalGlobe Inc (NYSE:DGI) jumped from $13.51 on Thursday to $16.61 per share during Friday, May 4, 2012.
