WASHINGTON--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Finkelstein Thompson LLP is investigating potential claims on behalf of shareholders of NYSE Euronext, Inc. (aNYSE Euronexta or the aCompanya) (NYSE: NYX) concerning the proposed acquisition of the Company by Deutsche Boerse AG. Under the terms of the offer, NYSE Euronext shareholders will receive 0.47 shares in the new company for each share of NYSE Euronext stock owned, and NYSE Euronext shareholders would own a minority 40% interest in the new company. The approximate value of the consideration was $38.12 per share of NYSE Euronext as of the date of the merger announcement.

The investigation is focused on the potential unfairness of the consideration to NYSE Euronext shareholders, the process by which the Board of Directors considered the transaction, and potential conflicts of interests among NYSE Euronext Board members. In particular, according to Yahoo! Finance, at least one analyst has set a target price of $48.00 for NYSE Euronext shares.
