Kirby McInerney LLP is investigating potential claims against Athlon Energy Inc. (“Athlon” or the “Company”) (NYSE:ATHL) concerning the proposed acquisition of the Company by Encana Corporation (“Encana”) (NYSE:ECA). Under the terms of the deal, Athlon stockholders will receive $58.50 in cash for each share of Athlon common stock they own.
