Deals announced
3 vehicles signed a definitive business-combination agreement. An announcement starts the clock on a proxy, a shareholder vote and a redemption window, and a signed agreement is not a closed one.
- CSLM Digital Asset Acquisition Corp III, Ltd (KOYN), $237.4M
- Andretti Acquisition Corp. II (POLE)
- GOWell Technology Ltd
Approved by shareholders
4 combinations went to a vote and passed. At that point the redemption window has run and what remains in trust is what the deal has to work with.
- Cantor Equity Partners, Inc.
- Columbus Circle Capital Corp. I, $253.8M
- Roth CH Acquisition Co., $23.3M
- Corner Growth Acquisition Corp. (COOL), $1.9M
Wound up
3 vehicles ran out of time and returned $312.2M to shareholders. Liquidation is the ordinary outcome for a SPAC that never finds a target, not a failure of the structure.
- Columbus Circle Capital Corp. I, $253.8M
- Cantor Equity Partners, Inc.
- Westin Acquisition Corp (WSTN), $58.4M
