Investors to file class-action suit in Skechers acquisition

HEDGE FUNDS and other big investors accuse Skechers of shortchanging them.

(CHRISTINA HOUSE Los Angeles Times)

3G Capital took the Manhattan Beach-based sneaker company private in a $9.4-billion deal that closed in September and reflected a share price of $63 per share.

In a class-action complaint filed this month in Delaware Chancery Court, hedge funds and other large Skechers investors accused the company and 3G Capital of arranging a non-independent deal that shortchanged minority shareholders.
