Lions Gate Entertainment (LGF) board has rejected by unanimous vote of the directors Carl Icahn’s offer to buy up outstanding shares for $7 each. Icahn on Friday offered to buy all of Lions Gate’s common shares for $7 each, raising a previous $6 per share offer. The board upon the recommendation of the Special Committee of the Board rejected the buyout offer and said in a statement the offer was “financially inadequate, opportunistic and coercive and is not in the best interests of Lions Gate, its shareholders and other stakeholders.”
