On September 21, 2014, the two companies announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Siemens AG ("Siemens") will acquire Dresser-Rand in a merger in a deal worth $7.6 billion. As a result of the merger, Dresser-Rand shareholders are only anticipated to receive $83.00 per share in cash in exchange for each share of Dresser-Rand. Dresser-Rand shareholders will also receive an additional $0.55 per share on the first day of each month starting March 1, 2015 until the merger closes. The process leading up to the announcement of the merger, however, appears to have some substantial conflicts of interest, thus making the process and consideration unfair. As indicated by Dresser-Rand, the Company's entire executive management team will continue their roles with Siemens upon commencement of the merger. Additionally, the consideration Dresser-Rand shareholders are expected to receive is inadequate. Analysts at Yahoo! Finance have set a $100.00 per share price target for Dresser-Rand which is 20.4% more than what shareholders are expected to receive.
On September 24, 2014, a Dresser-Rand shareholder filed a class action complaint that challenges Dresser-Rand's merger with Siemens. The complaint was filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery, Case No. 10165. To obtain a copy of the complaint please contact us.
