LabCorp to buy Covance

dealbook.nytimes.com
"Under the terms of the deal, LabCorp [LH] will pay $105.12 a share, nearly 32 percent higher than the close of Covance shares on Friday. Covance shareholders will receive $75.76 in cash and 0.2686 of a LabCorp share for each share they own. They will own about 15.5 percent of the combined company."

This news is followed by announcements from a variety of law firms launching investigations of CVD over its proposed sale to Laboratory Corp. of America Holdings for $5.6 billion. Unhappy campers.

I don't know if this can/will delay or alter this sale.

"The investigation focuses on whether Covance's Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders by failing to conduct a fair sales process and whether and by how much this proposed transaction undervalues the Company to the detriment of Covance's shareholders."
