SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Johnson Fistel, PLLP, a leading shareholder rights law firm, has commenced an investigation into whether the board of directors of Skechers U.S.A., Inc. (NYSE: SKX) breached its fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to 3G Capital Corp. ('3G').

Over the twelve months preceding the announcement of the deal, Skechers common stock traded at levels approaching $80.00 per share, raising potential concerns Share On May 5, 2025, Skechers entered into a definitive agreement under which 3G will acquire all outstanding shares of common stock in a go-private transaction.
