SAN DIEGO, Aug. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of SRC Energy Inc. (NYSE: SRCI) ("SRC") breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to PDC Energy, Inc. ("PDC").

On August 26, 2019, SRC announced that it had signed a definitive merger agreement with PDC. Under the terms of the deal, SRC shareholders will receive a fixed exchange ratio of 0.158 PDC shares for each share of SRC common stock, representing an implied value of $3.99 per share based on the PDC closing price as of August 23, 2019. However, shareholders will be subject to the future price fluctuation of PDC's stock price.

The investigation concerns whether the SRC 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 SRC shares of common stock. Nationally recognized Johnson Fistel is investigating whether the proposed deal represents adequate consideration, especially given analysts' projections for future earnings growth; also one Wall Street analyst has a $10.00 price target on the stock. The 52-week high for SRC was $10.14.
