BALA CYNWYD, PA / ACCESSWIRE / December 7, 2020 / Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Anworth Mortgage Asset Corporation ("Anworth" or the "Company") (NYSE:ANH) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of federal and state law in connection with the agreement to be acquired by Ready Capital Corporation ("Ready Capital") (NYSE - RC). Under the terms of the agreement, Anworth shareholders will receive only 0.1688 shares of Ready Capital common stock and $0.61 in cash consideration. Based on Ready Capital's closing stock price on Friday, December 4, 2020, the implied offer price is $2.94 per share.

The investigation concerns whether the Anworth Board breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders by failing to conduct a fair process and whether Ready Capital is underpaying for the Company. For example, the merger consideration is well below the 52-week high of $3.80 for Anworth shares.

If you own shares of Anworth stock and wish to discuss the legal ramifications of the investigation, or have any questions, you may e-mail or call the law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC who will, without obligation or cost to you, attempt to answer your questions.
