SAN DIEGO, June 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — Shareholder rights law firm Johnson & Weaver, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of Diamond Resorts International, Inc. (NYSE: DRII) breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Apollo Global Management, LLC.

On June 29, 2016, Diamond Resorts announced it had signed a definitive merger agreement with Apollo. Under the terms of the agreement, Apollo will pay $30.25 per share in cash for each share of Diamond Resorts common stock.

The investigation concerns whether the Diamond Resorts board failed to satisfy their duties to the Company shareholders, including whether the board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the board obtained the best price possible for Diamond Resorts shares of common stock. Nationally recognized Johnson & Weaver is investigating whether the proposed deal price represents adequate consideration; especially given that the price target for one Wall Street analyst is $35.00.

If you are a shareholder of Diamond Resorts  and believe the proposed buyout price is too low or you’re interested in learning more about the investigation or your legal rights and remedies, please contact lead analyst Jim Baker ([email protected]) at 619-814-4471.
