On October 5, 2014, CareFusion and Becton Dickinson & Company ("Becton") announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Becton will acquire CareFusion in a merger worth $12.2 billion. As a result of the merger, CareFusion shareholders are only anticipated to receive a total of $58.00 per share ($49.00 per share in cash and 0.0777 of a share of Becton) in exchange for each share of CareFusion. Indeed, the announcement of the merger was uniquely timed after CareFusion hit its 52-week high on Friday, October 3, 2014. Additionally, following the merger, CareFusion shareholders are expected to be substantially diluted, owning only 8% of the combined company. The 0.0777 exchange ratio restricts the value that CareFusion shareholders are expected to receive by exposing CareFusion shareholders to the volatility of Becton's share price.

On October 8, 2014, a CareFusion shareholder represented by another law firm filed a class action complaint that challenges the Company's merger with Becton. The complaint was filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery, Case No. 10214.
