SAN DIEGO, Aug. 31, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of Aimmune Therapeutics, Inc. ("Aimmune" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: AIMT) breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Nestl S.A.

On August 31, 2020, Aimmune announced that it had entered into a definitive merger agreement with Nestl S.A. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, the Company's shareholders will receive $34.50 per share in cash.

The investigation concerns whether the Aimmune board failed to satisfy its duties to the Company shareholders, including whether the board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the board obtained the best price possible for Aimmune shares of common stock. Nationally recognized Johnson Fistel is investigating whether the proposed deal represents adequate consideration, especially given one Wall Street analyst has a $66.00 price target on the stock. The 52-week high forAimmune was $37.00.
