NEW YORK, June 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP (www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of The Ryland Group, Inc. ("Ryland" or the "Company") (NYSE: RYL) concerning the proposed acquisition of the Company by Standard Pacific Corp. ("Standard Pacific") (NYSE: SPF).

Harwood Feffer LLP.

Under the terms of the transaction, Standard Pacific would acquire Ryland in a transaction that will result in a single company with a market capitalization of approximately $5.2 billion. At the time of the merger, Standard Pacific will implement a 1 for 5 reverse stock split and then Ryland stockholders will receive 1.0191 shares of post-split Standard Pacific stock for each share of Ryland common stock. 

Our investigation concerns whether the Ryland board of directors is fulfilling its fiduciary duties, maximizing the value of the Company, disclosing all material benefits and costs, and obtaining full and fair consideration for Company stockholders. 

If you own Ryland stock and wish to discuss this matter with us, or have any questions concerning your rights and interests with regard to this matter, please contact:
