On January 27, 2012, the companies announced the definitive merger agreement under which Solutia would be acquired by Eastman Chemical, in a transaction valued at approximately $3.38 billion. Under the terms of the agreement, Solutia stockholders will receive $22.00 in cash and 0.12 shares of Eastman Chemical stock (NYSE: EMN) for each share of Solutia/SOA common stock held. Based on Eastman Chemical's Thursday closing price, the deal is valued at $27.65 a share. According to Thompson/First Call, analysts have set a price target as high as $31.00 per share for Solutia's stock. The firm's investigation seeks to determine whether Solutia and its Board undertook a fair process in negotiating the deal.
