Analyst questions
Maxim and SPACs, answered
The questions a desk actually asks about a bank's blank-check franchise, answered from Maxim's own mandates rather than from generic explainer copy.
Which SPACs has Maxim underwritten?
Maxim appears on the underwriting syndicate of 1 special purpose acquisition company IPO in our index, including Beneficient Merger Sub II, LLC. The full list, with the role credited on each cover page, is in the mandates table on this page.
How many SPAC IPOs has Maxim book-run?
We have not indexed a book-running credit for Maxim; every mandate on record is a co-manager or syndicate position. Bookrunner status is read from the prospectus cover, so a blank can also mean the cover did not separate the roles.
How much SPAC capital has Maxim underwritten?
$207.0M of gross proceeds across every offering Maxim was named on. That is the conventional league-table measure, which credits the full deal to each syndicate member. The narrower figure is its own allocation: $180.0M, being the units the underwriting agreements assigned to Maxim specifically, priced at the $10 standard SPAC unit.
What is the largest SPAC IPO Maxim has worked on?
Beneficient Merger Sub II, LLC, which raised $207.0M in Oct 2021. Maxim was credited as a syndicate member on that offering.
Which Maxim SPACs completed a business combination?
None of the SPACs Maxim underwrote has yet reported a completed business combination in the filings we index. 0 remain live and 1 returned their trust.
Which Maxim SPACs are still looking for a target?
Maxim has no live SPAC mandates in our index; every vehicle it underwrote has either closed a deal or wound up.
What is Maxim's SPAC completion rate?
0%. Of the 1 vehicles Maxim underwrote that have already resolved, 0 closed a business combination and 1 liquidated. The market-wide figure is 13.2%, so Maxim sits below it. SPACs still searching are excluded, because an unfinished clock is not a result. The rate measures the vehicles, not the bank: a syndicate has no control over whether a sponsor finds a target.
Which Maxim SPAC performed best after its merger?
We hold a current quote for none of Maxim's closed deals, so no comparison is possible here. Post-merger price history is not part of our dataset, and we would rather say so than imply a ranking the data does not support. What this page does show is the outcome of every vehicle and the trust economics disclosed at the time.
Which sponsors does Maxim work with most?
Avalon (1 deal). Sponsor franchises are resolved from the sponsor entity named in each prospectus, so repeat issuers group together even though every vehicle is a separate legal entity.
Which banks does Maxim share SPAC syndicates with?
Most often Maxim Group (1). Syndicate composition is read from the prospectus cover and the underwriting section, so these are co-appearances on the same offering, not a commercial relationship we have any other visibility into.
When did Maxim start underwriting SPACs, and is it still active?
Its first SPAC IPO in our index priced Oct 7, 2021 and the most recent Oct 7, 2021. It has no live vehicles at present.
What size of SPAC does Maxim typically underwrite?
The average offering it has been named on raised $207.0M, against a range from $207.0M to $207.0M. Deal size is a reasonable proxy for where a house sits in the market: the bulge bracket concentrates on larger trusts, the SPAC specialists on smaller ones.
Which sectors do Maxim's SPACs target?
Technology (1) and Financial Services (1). Mandates are read from charter language in the prospectus and are often deliberately broad. Many SPACs reserve the right to pursue any industry, in which case no sector is tagged at all.
How many of Maxim's SPACs liquidated?
1. A liquidation means the vehicle reached its combination deadline without closing a deal and returned the trust to public shareholders. That is the mechanism working as designed, not a default. Holders who did not redeem got their pro-rata share of the trust back.
Where does this Maxim data come from?
Every figure is read from filings the registrants made with the SEC. Syndicate membership and role come from the prospectus cover and the underwriting section of each IPO prospectus (Form 424B4); outcomes come from the filing record: a current report announcing completion, or a delisting notice ending a liquidation. Nothing here is sourced from press coverage or from Maxim itself.
Compiled by the SPACListing research desk
Last reconciled Feb 7, 2024
Every figure on this page is read from documents the registrants filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, principally IPO prospectuses (Form 424B4), current reports (Form 8-K), delisting notices (Form 25-NSE). Nothing is sourced from press coverage, from the companies themselves, or from a third-party aggregator. Where a filing does not disclose something, the field is left blank rather than estimated.
