Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that it is
investigating potential claims against the board of directors of
Home Diagnostics, Inc. (“Home Diagnostics” or the “Company”)
(Nasdaq:HDIX) related to the Company’s agreement to be acquired by
Nipro Corporation (“Nipro”). The transaction is valued at
approximately $215 million, including assumed debt.
Under the terms of the definitive merger agreement entered into
by the parties, Nipro will acquire all outstanding shares of Home
Diagnostics’ common stock for $11.50 per share in cash by means of
a cash tender followed by a second-step merger in which untendered
Home Diagnostics’ shares will be acquired at the same $11.50 net
cash price per share. All Home Diagnostics stock options and stock
appreciation rights will receive cash equal to the excess, if any,
of $11.50 over their exercise price. The parties expect the tender
offer to commence on or about February 10, 2010. The investigation
concerns possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations
of law related to approval of the merger agreement by the Home
Diagnostics board of directors.
