SAN DIEGO, June 27, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of Caesars Entertainment Corporation (NASDAQ: CZR) ("Caesars") breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Eldorado Resorts, Inc. ("Eldorado").

On June 24, 2019, Caesars announced that it had signed a definitive merger agreement with Eldorado. Under the terms of the deal, Eldorado will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Caesars for a total value of $12.75 per share, consisting of $8.40 per share in cash consideration and 0.0899 shares of Eldorado common stock for each Caesars share of common stock. However, shareholders will be subject to the future price fluctuation of Eldorado's stock price.

The investigation concerns whether the Caesars 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 Caesars shares of common stock.
