We are investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the board of directors of Everi Holdings Inc. (“Everi” or the “Company”) (NYSE: EVRI) in connection with its acquisition by International Game Technology PLC (“IGT”) (NYSE: IGT). Upon completion of the transaction, IGT shareholders will own 54% of the combined company, while Everi shareholders will only own 46%.
Weiss Law is investigating whether (i) the Everi board acted in the best interests of Company shareholders in agreeing to the merger, (ii) the merger consideration adequately compensates Everi shareholders, and (iii) all information regarding the sales process and valuation of the transaction will be fully and fairly disclosed.
Weiss Law has litigated hundreds of stockholder class and derivative actions for violations of corporate and fiduciary duties. We have recovered over a billion dollars for defrauded clients and obtained important corporate governance relief in many of these cases. If you have information or would like legal advice concerning possible corporate wrongdoing (including insider trading, waste of corporate assets, accounting fraud, or materially misleading information), consumer fraud (including false advertising, defective products, or other deceptive business practices), or anti-trust violations, please email us at stockinfo@weisslawllp.com
