Smith Announces Investigation On Behalf of Shareholders of Diedrich Coffee, Inc. 2009-11-03 23:14 ET - News Release BENSALEM, Pa. -- (Business Wire)
Please replace the release with the following corrected version due to
revised second graph.
The corrected release reads:
LAW OFFICES OF HOWARD G. SMITH ANNOUNCES INVESTIGATION ON BEHALF OF
SHAREHOLDERS OF DIEDRICH COFFEE, INC.
Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that it is investigating
potential claims against the board of directors of Diedrich Coffee, Inc.
(“Diedrich Coffee” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:DDRX) for possible breaches
of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with
their attempt to sell the Company to Peet’s Coffee & Tea, Inc. (“Peet’s”)
The investigation concerns the price to be paid by Peet’s to Diedrich
Coffee shareholders and the process by which Diedrich Coffee’s Board of
Directors is addressing the transaction. Under the terms of the proposed
transaction, Diedrich Coffee shareholders will receive $17.33 in cash
and a fraction of a Peet’s share valued at about $8.67 for every share
of Diedrich Coffee common stock they own. The transaction appears to be
unfair given that Diedrich Coffee stock was trading at $29.88 a share as
recently as October 22, 2009 and was trading at $25.39 a share on August
4, 2009.
