NEW YORK, March 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP is
investigating claims on behalf of investors of Crown Media Holding,
Inc. ("Crown Media" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: CRWN) (ISIN:
US2284111042) (CUSIP: 228411104) concerning the proposed
acquisition of Crown Media by Hallmark Cards, Inc..
Crown Media shareholders seeking more information about this
acquisition are advised to contact Robert
Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or
888-476-6529, ext. 9980.
The investigation concerns whether the Crown Media directors are
breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately maximize
shareholder value. Under the terms of the proposed
transaction, Crown Media shareholders will be entitled to receive
$5.05 in cash for each share of Crown
Media common stock.
However, the Book Value, EBITDA, and EBIT multiples are below
the averages of comparable transactions, according to a
Bloomberg analysis.
