A group of GAIN Capital Holdings, Inc. shareholders are attempting to block the $236 million purchase of the company by INTL FCStone Inc. Under terms of the definitive merger agreement, INTL will acquire GAIN for $6.00 per share.
The deal would represent a modest premium of approximately 12% to to GAIN's tangible book value. The deal is slated to close mid-year, pending approval by regulators and a majority of GAIN's shareholders.
The shareholders allege that the purchase price of $6.00 per share is insufficient in light of the company's growth prospects and that deal-protection clauses in the merger agreement preclude other companies from submitting successful competing offers. In addition, shareholders allege that senior management of GAIN obtained personal benefits for their own self interests in agreeing to sell the company at that price that are not being shared with common stockholders.
GAIN Capital investor relations did not immediately respond to requests for a comment.
