The Monsey law firm of Wohl & Fruchter LLP is investigating the fairness of the proposed sale of Iridium Communications to Rocket Lab Corporation. Under the deal, Iridium shareholders would receive $27.00 per share in cash plus a number of Rocket Lab shares based on an exchange ratio with a collar banded from $67.50 to $112.50 per share, implying a total consideration of $54.00 per share. Since the transaction was announced on June 29, 2026, Rocket Lab’s stock price has fallen nearly 20%, dragging Iridium’s stock down to $48.67 as of July 15, 2026, well below the implied value. The firm is examining whether the Iridium Board acted in the best interests of shareholders and whether all material information has been disclosed.
