Business Wire
Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is
investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of
Newport Bancorp, Inc. (“Newport Bancorp” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:
NFSB) relating to the proposed acquisition by SI Financial Group,
Inc. (“SI Financial”).
Under the terms of the transaction, Newport Bancorp shareholders
will receive only $17.55 per share in cash or 1.5129 shares of SI
Financial for each share of Newport Bancorp stock they own. The
investigation concerns possible breaches of fiduciary duty and
other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of Newport
Bancorp for not acting in the Company’s shareholders' best
interests in connection with the sale process to SI Financial. The
focus of the investigation is whether the Newport Bancorp Board of
Directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to conduct an
adequate and fair sales process prior to agreeing to this proposed
transaction. The proposed transaction is only a very slight premium
above the $17.25 Newport Bancorp stock traded at on November 1,
2012.
If you own shares of Newport Bancorp stock and wish to discuss
the legal ramifications of the proposed transaction, or have any
