NEW YORK, Jan. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Levi & Korsinsky is investigating the Board of Directors of Texas Industries, Inc.

Under the terms of the transaction, TXI shareholders will receive 0.7 shares of MLM for each share of TXI common stock they own. Based on the closing price of MLM stock on January 27, 2014, this represents a value of approximately $71.95 per share. The transaction has a total approximate value of $2.7 billion. The investigation concerns whether the TXI Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duty to TXI shareholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before agreeing to enter into this transaction, and whether MLM is underpaying for TXI shares. In particular, at least one analyst set a price target for TXI stock at $80.00 per share.
