WOW SHAREHOLDER NOTICE: Kaskela Law LLC Launches Investigation into the Fairness of WideOpenWest (NYSE: WOW) Buyout Price - Is $5.20 Per Share Insufficient?
Written by Emily J. Thompson, Senior Investment Analyst
Kaskela Law LLC's Role: The law firm is investigating the fairness of the buyout of WideOpenWest, Inc. (NYSE: WOW) to assess whether the buyout price adequately reflects the company's value. Shareholders are encouraged to reach out to discuss their legal rights regarding the proposal.
Buyout Details: On August 11, 2025, WideOpenWest announced its acquisition by DigitalBridge Investments and Crestview Partners at a price of $5.20 per share. Post-transaction, shareholders will be cashed out, and the company's shares will cease to be publicly traded.
Concerns Over Fairness: The investigation has revealed potential conflicts of interest in the transaction, suggesting that the sales process may not be fair to shareholders. Notably, at the time of the announcement, a stock analyst had set a price target of $6.50 per share for WideOpenWest, indicating that the buyout price may undervalue the company.
Call to Action for Shareholders: Shareholders who believe the buyout price is insufficient are urged to contact Kaskela Law LLC for more information on their legal options. The firm specializes in securities fraud, corporate governance, and merger & acquisition litigation.
Contact Information: Interested shareholders can reach Kaskela Law LLC at (888) 715-1740 or visit their website for further details on the investigation and their rights.
