Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of AGL Resources Inc. (“AGL” or the “Company”) (NYSE: GAS) for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the sale of the Company to Southern Company for approximately $12 billion in a cash transaction.

The Company’s stockholders will only receive $66.00 for each share of Company common stock they own. However, the offer represents an inadequate premium over the Company’s opening price per share of $60.80 on August 27, 2015 and the stock is expected to continue climbing.

The investigation focuses on whether AGL’s Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders by failing to conduct a fair sales process and whether and by how much this proposed transaction undervalues the Company to the detriment of AGL’s shareholders.
