STEVENSON, Md.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--The law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty to current shareholders of RehabCare Group, Inc. (aRehabCarea) (NYSE:RHB) and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of RehabCare relating to the proposed acquisition of the company by Kindred Healthcare, Inc. (aKindreda). The firma™s investigation seeks to determine whether RehabCare and its Board breached their fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value.

On February 8, 2011, RehabCare and Kindred jointly announced that they had entered into a definitive merger agreement for RehabCare to be acquired by Kindred. Under the terms of the agreement, each stockholder of RehabCare common stock will receive $26 per share in cash and 0.471 of a share of Kindred common stock. Based upon the average value of Kindred common stock during the ten trading days preceding the signing of the merger agreement, each RehabCare stockholder will receive consideration with a current value of approximately $35 per share. However, Rehabcare has recently beat analystsa™ expectations, posting fourth-quarter earnings of $17.1 million, or $0.69 per share, up from $655,000 or $0.03 a share, a year earlier. Revenue also jumped 36% to $339.3 million. Analysts had predicted a per-share profit of $0.61.
