BALA CYNWYD, PA / ACCESSWIRE / April 19, 2017 / Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Swift Transportation Company ("Swift" or "the Company") (NYSE: SWFT) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the merger of the Company with Knight Transportation ("Knight").

Under the terms of the transaction, Swift shareholders will receive only 0.72 of a share of Knight for each share of Swift stock they own. The transaction values Swift at only approximately $22.07 per share. The investigation concerns whether the Board of Swift breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders and whether Knight is underpaying for the Company. The transaction may undervalue the Company and would result in a loss or no real gain for many Swift shareholders. For example, shares of Swift stock traded at $26.57 per share on December 7, 2016 and the price being paid by Knight is below an analyst price target of $30.00 per share.
