NEW YORK, June 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz Grossman Hufford Dahlstrom & Gross
LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Vanguard
Health Services, Inc. ("Vanguard Health" or the "Company") (NYSE:
VHS) (ISIN: US9220362076) (CUSIP: 922036207) concerning the
proposed acquisition of Vanguard Health in a transaction valued at
$4.3 billion including the assumption
of $2.5 billion in Vanguard Health
debt.
The investigation concerns whether the Vanguard Health directors
are breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately shop
the Company and maximize shareholder value. Under the terms
of the agreement, Vanguard Health shareholders will be entitled to
receive $21.00 per share in cash for
each share of Vanguard Health common stock. However, the
price to Revenue and EBITDA multiples are below the average of
comparable transactions.
Vanguard Health shareholders seeking more information about this
acquisition are advised to contact Robert
Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 212-661-1100 or
888-476-6529, ext. 237.
The firm is also investigating actions on behalf of shareholders
for the following companies: Hilltop Community Bancorp, Inc.,
Dole Food Company, Inc., and Cooper Tire & Rubber Company.

Diego, is acknowledged as one of the premier firms in the
