The company stated in its press release that after a careful review, its Board of Directors “unanimously determined that the proposal significantly undervalues the worth of LL Flooring, its business, and prospects and is not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Board is always open to considering a transaction that appropriately reflects the Company’s value and prospects.”
LL stock has fared badly in the past year and is down by more than 55%.
