Tripp Levy PLLC Investigates Management Buyout of Henry Brothers Electronics
October 06 2010 - 7:58AM
Business Wire
Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities firm, announces
an investigation into the proposed acquisition of Henry Bros.
Electronics, Inc. (NASDAQ: HBE). HBE announced today that it has
entered into a definitive agreement with Kratos Defense &
Security Solutions (NASDAQ: KTOS) to acquire all outstanding shares
of HBE common stock for a purchase price of approx. $45 million in
cash, or $7.00 per HBE share of common stock.
Mr. Henry, Mr. Rockwell and all other directors of HBE, who
collectively hold approximately 60% of HBE's shares outstanding,
have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the anticipated
merger. Additionally, Mr. Henry has committed to purchase Kratos
common stock in the open market at prevailing market prices using a
portion of his share of the proceeds from the merger following the
transaction closing.
The investigation concerns, among other things, whether the
consideration to be paid to HBE shareholders is grossly unfair,
inadequate, and substantially below the fair or inherent value of
HBE. The investigation further concerns whether Mr. Henry, as the
controlling shareholder of the company, as well as the board of
directors of HBE may have breached their fiduciary duties by not
acting in HBE shareholders' best interests in connection with the
sale process of HBE.
