(“Hastings” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ CM: HAST) regarding possible breaches of fiduciary duties and other violations of law related to the Company’s entry into an agreement to be acquired by affiliates of Joel Weinshanker (“Weinshanker”) in a transaction valued at approximately $21.4 million.

Under the terms of the agreement, public shareholders of Hastings will receive $3.00 per share in cash for each share of Hastings they own.

The investigation concerns whether Hastings’s board of directors failed to adequately shop the Company and obtain the best possible value for Hastings’s shareholders before entering into an agreement with Weinshanker. According to Yahoo! Finance, at least one analyst has issued a price target for Hastings stock at $5.00 per share.
