SAN DIEGO, Sept. 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Shareholder law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP has opened an investigation into whether the directors of Covetrus, Inc.

CD&R already owns 24% of Covetrus’ outstanding common stock. Pursuant to the companies’ merger agreement, announced on May 25, 2022, CD&R and TPG will acquire the remaining outstanding shares of Covetrus for $21 per share in cash.

The investigation concerns whether the board of directors of Covetrus failed to fulfill its responsibilities to the company’s shareholders, including whether the board of directors appropriately pursued alternatives to acquisition and whether the board of directors obtained the best possible price for Covetrus common stock, especially given the company’s forecast sales and earnings growth.
