Exactech (EXAC) Alert: Johnson Fistel Investigates Proposed Sale of Exactech, Inc.; Is $42 A Fair Price?

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 23, 2017

On October 23, 2017, Exactech announced that it had signed a definitive merger agreement with TPG. Under the terms of the deal, TPG will pay $42.00 for each Exactech share, other than certain shares owned by management stockholders. Exactech founders Dr. Bill Petty and Betty Petty and CEO David Petty have agreed with TPG to vote all of their shares in favor of the merger and to exchange a significant portion of their shares for new shares in the parent entity immediately following the merger. Upon completion of the transaction, Exactech will be a privately-held company.

The investigation concerns whether the Exactech board failed to satisfy its duties to the Company shareholders, including whether the board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the board obtained the best price possible for Exactech shares of common stock. Nationally recognized Johnson Fistel investigation focuses on whether the board of directors including the founders at Exactech is undertaking a fair process to obtain maximum value that adequately compensates its shareholders.
