ACCURIDE MERGER INVESTIGATION ALERT - Andrews & Springer LLC Is Seeking More Cash for Shareholders of Accuride Corporation

WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 06, 2016 -- Andrews & Springer LLC, a boutique securities class action law firm focused on representing shareholders nationwide, is investigating potential breach of fiduciary duty claims against the Board of Directors of Accuride Corporation (“Accuride” or the “Company”) relating to the sale of the Company to affiliates of private investment firm Crestview Partners (“Crestview”). On September 2, 2016, the two parties announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Crestview will acquire Accuride in a merger worth $124 million. As a result of the merger, Accuride shareholders are only anticipated to receive $2.58 per share in cash in exchange for each share of Accuride.

Our investigation is looking into whether Accuride’s top executives were conflicted and acted in their own self-interest when approving the merger.  According to the Company’s September 2nd announcement, Accuride’s senior management will continue their employment post-merger: “President and CEO Rick Dauch and the members of the Accuride Leadership Team will continue to lead the business after the transaction closes.” Additionally, we are looking into the suspicious timing of Accuride’s recently announced agreement to sell its Brillion Iron Works subsidiary to a subsidiary of Metaldyne Performance Group Inc.
