SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brower Piven Launches An Investigation Into The Proposed Sale Of Athlon Energy Inc. And Encourages Investors To Contact The Firm For Additional Information

The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of Athlon Energy Inc. (“Athlon” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ATHL) relating to the proposed buyout of the Company by Encana Corporation (“Encana”).

Under the terms of the transaction, Athlon shareholders are anticipated to receive $58.50 per share in cash for each share of Athlon stock owned. The firm’s investigation seeks to determine, among other things, whether the Company’s Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value before agreeing to enter into the transaction, and whether Encana is underpaying for Athlon shares. In particular, according to Yahoo! Finance, at least one Wall Street analyst has issued a price target for Athlon stock at $66.00 per share.
