Webster discloses supplemental J.P. Morgan valuation data in response to Santander acquisition lawsuits

WEBSTER FINANCIAL CORP

Three stockholder complaints and demand letters allege proxy statement lacks full disclosure on Webster's Santander deal.
Webster voluntarily adds J.P. Morgan's peer multiples (P/E 9.4x-11.7x) and DCF range ($65.15-$80.75) to proxy.
J.P. Morgan's implied value range versus implied consideration of $75.00 per share and Webster's $65.77 close on Jan 30.
Special stockholder meeting to vote on acquisition scheduled for May 26, 2026.
Webster denies allegations without admitting liability; litigation risk remains.
