Smart & Final Stores, Inc. (SFS) Information Request Form

Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has commenced an investigation into the fairness of the sale of Smart & Final Stores, Inc. (“Smart & Final” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SFS) to certain funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC. Under the terms of the transaction, Smart & Final shareholders will receive $6.50 per share.

The Smart & Final merger investigation concerns whether the Board of Smart & Final breached their fiduciary duties to stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before agreeing to enter into this transaction, and whether the funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC are underpaying for Smart & Final shares, thus unlawfully harming Smart & Final shareholders.

To receive more information, please fill out the form.

Levi & Korsinsky, LLP does not share your information with others. There is no cost or obligation for you to submit.
