Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. Investigates Animal Health International, Inc. Buyout - AHII

Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. announces that it is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Animal Health International, Inc. (“AHII” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: AHII) concerning possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law related to the Company’s entry into an agreement to be acquired by Lextron, with support from investment funds affiliated with Leonard Green & Partners, L.P., in a transaction with a  total value of approximately $251 million (including the repayment of AHII’s outstanding indebtedness).

Under the proposed agreement, Lextron will acquire all outstanding shares of AHII for $4.25 per share in cash.  Moreover, investment funds affiliated with Charlesbank Capital Partners, and Jim Robison, AHII’s Chairman, President and CEO, who together own approximately 33% of AHII’s outstanding common stock, have agreed to vote in favor of the transaction.

The investigation concerns whether AHII’s board of directors failed to adequately shop the Company and obtain the best price possible for AHII’s shareholders before entering into the agreement with Lextron.  Indeed, according to Yahoo! Finance, at least one analyst has set a price target of $5.00 per share for AHII stock.

If you own the common stock of AHII and purchased your shares before March 14, 2011, if you have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or if you wish to discuss these matters or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Seth D.
