Juan E. Monteverde, a partner at Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp. ("Kodiak" or the "Company") (NYSE:KOG) for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the sale of the Company to Whiting Petroleum Corporation ("Whiting") in an all-stock deal valued at approximately $6 billion. The Company's stockholders will only receive 0.177 Whiting shares for each share of Kodiak common stock they own, which is equivalent to approximately $13.90 per share based on Whiting's closing price on July 11, 2014. According to Yahoo! Finance, at least one analyst has set a price target of $19.00 for the Company.
