It's an open question as to whether corporate executives really take
their duty to shareholders seriously, but that becomes an even more
relevant issue when a potential takeover comes into the picture.
Georgia Gulf (NYSE:
GGC) management may well be right that
Westlake's (NYSE:
WLK)
buyout
bid undervalued the company's potential, but a great deal of that
potential is tied to both a housing recovery and an improvement in the
company's cost structure.
While the long-term potential value of Georgia Gulf definitely exceeds
the Westlake offer, it may be hard for the company to surpass that offer
in the short term.
