We are investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the board of directors of U.S. Concrete, Inc. (“U.S. Concrete” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: USCR) in connection with the proposed acquisition of the Company by Vulcan Materials Company (NYSE: VMC).  Under the terms of the merger agreement, the Company’s shareholders will receive $74.00 per share in cash for each share of U.S. Concrete common stock that they hold.  The transaction is valued at approximately $1.294 billion.

WeissLaw LLP is investigating whether (i) U.S.Concrete’s board of directors acted in the best interests of Companyshareholders in agreeing to the proposed transaction, (ii) the $74.00 per-sharemerger consideration adequately compensates U.S. Concrete’s shareholders, and (iii)all information regarding the sales process and valuation of the transactionwill be fully and fairly disclosed.  Notably,at least one analyst set a price target for the Company of $80 per share, $6above the per-share merger consideration.
