Steve,

I agree with your analysis completely. I had also expected at least something around $6, based upon discounted cash flow valuation. Keep in mind that it would probably only take several million dollars worth of DRNK stock to challenge the buyout. And I'm sure that DRNK would be attractive to other companies as well.

What really makes me angry is that TRY, through buying out DRNK's management with a lucrative package, has subverted management's fiduciary duty to shareholders, so much so that they are allowing the company to be bought out way below intrinsic value, and even the previous weeks' trading price of over $4.00! And the intrinsic value of a share of Triarc isn't anywhere near $20.

I'm not sure what legal action we can take (is there such a thing as "breach of fiduciary duty")? The risk of buying more shares to get more control would probably be minimal at this point, unless shares of TRY continue to decrease. Any ideas?
