Wolf Popper LLP Investigates the Proposed Acquisition of Forestar Group Inc. by Starwood Capital Group

NEW YORK, April 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Wolf Popper LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors in Forestar Group Inc. (NYSE: FOR), concerning the proposed acquisition of Forestar by Starwood Capital Group.  According to Carl Stine, who is a partner at Wolf Popper LLP, "Based on where Forestar's stock price was trading before the announcement of the deal and the significantly higher median analysts' target, it is clear that this is a lowball price."    

Under the terms of the proposed transaction, Forestar shareholders will receive only $14.25 in cash for each of their shares.  The proposed offer is below the 52-week high and below the median analysts' price target of $16.00 per share.
