Nordion Shareholder Alert: Former SEC Attorney Willie Briscoe and Powers Taylor LLP Investigate Acquisition by Sterigenics


DALLAS --(Business Wire)--

Former United States Securities and Exchange Commission attorney Willie Briscoe and the securities litigation firm of Powers Taylor LLP are investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Nordion Inc. ("Nordion") (NYSE: NDZ) related to the acquisition by Sterigenics for shareholders. Under the terms of the definitive agreement valued at approximately $727 million, consideration will consist of $11.75 per share in cash, which is well below at least one analyst's estimated value of $13.00 per shre.

The Nordion investigation centers on whether Nordion's shareholders are receiving adequate compensation for their shares in the proposed deal, whether the transaction undervalues Nordion's stock, and whether Nordion's board attempted to obtain the highest share price for all shareholders prior to agreeing to the deal. Notably, at least one analyst with Yahoo! Finance estimates the true inherent value of the company could be as high as $13 per share.
