BALA CYNWYD, PA / ACCESSWIRE / April 15, 2021 / Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Weingarten Realty Investors ("Weingarten" or the "Company") (NYSE:WRI) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of federal and state law in connection with the agreement to be acquired by Kimco Realty Corporation ("Kimco") (NYSE:KIM). Under the terms of the agreement, Weingarten stockholders will receive only 1.408 newly issued shares of Kimco common stock plus $2.89 in cash, representing a per-share merger consideration of approximately $30.32 based on Kimco's April 14, 2021 closing price of $19.48.
