NEW YORK, Nov. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Nadeem Faruqi, founding partner at Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of Metaldyne Performance Group Inc. ("Metaldyne" or the "Company") (NYSE:MPG) for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the sale of the Company to American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings Inc. ("American Axle") for approximately $1.6 billion

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP

The Company's stockholders will only receive $13.50 per share in cash and 0.5 shares of American Axle common stock for each share of Company common stock they own, or approximately $20.34 per share based on American Axle's closing price on November 3, 2016. However, this consideration is below at least one analyst's price target of $21.00 per share and Metaldyne's 52-week high of $23.15 per share.

The investigation focuses on whether Metaldyne's Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders by failing to conduct a fair sales process and whether and by how much this proposed transaction undervalues the Company to the detriment of Metaldyne's shareholders.
