BALA CYNWYD, PA / ACCESSWIRE / January 13, 2020 / Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Hexcel Corporation ("Hexcel" or "the Company") (NYSE:HXL) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of federal and state law in connection with proposed acquisition of the Company by Woodward, Inc. ("Woodward"). Under the terms of the agreement, Hexcel shareholders will receive only 0.625 shares of Woodward stock for each share of Hexcel they own.
The investigation concerns whether the Hexcel Board breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders by failing to conduct a fair process and whether Woodward is underpaying for the Company. For example, the consideration offered is well below the 52-week high for Hexcel of $87.00 and at least one analyst has a price target of $94.00 for the Company.
