It completed its initial public offering in Jan 2025, raising $200M in gross proceeds and listing on Nasdaq. Class A shares trade under the ticker CEPO on Nasdaq.

“we expect to focus on a target in an industry where we believe our management team’s and our affiliates’ expertise will provide us with a competitive advantage, including the financial services, healthcare, real estate services, technology and software industries.”
Reading the filings
Arithmetic on what Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. has disclosed, written the way a desk would read it. These are observations, not a rating. Nothing here scores the vehicle or implies a view on it.
Trading at a premium to trust
At $10.77 the shares trade 1.97% above the $10.56 redemption floor. Above trust the market is paying for the announced or expected deal rather than for the cash, so the premium is what is at risk if the combination does not close.
Trust versus the $10 unit
The trust holds $10.56 per public share, 5.6% above the $10.00 the units were sold at. That spread is accrued interest on the trust and, where the charter provides for it, sponsor contributions paid in to buy more time. It is the floor a public shareholder can redeem at, not a valuation of the business.
Time on the clock
80 days to the Jan 8, 2027 deadline. Inside ninety days a sponsor has three routes and no others: close, call a shareholder vote to extend (which opens a redemption window and usually costs a monthly contribution into the trust), or liquidate and return the cash. This is the window where redemption arithmetic starts to dominate the share price.
Sponsor promote
The sponsor's founder block is 20,000,000 shares against 20,000,000 public shares, or 50.0% of the combined count, acquired before the IPO at nominal cost. That promote is the structural dilution every public shareholder carries into a combination, and it is why the economics of a de-SPAC differ so sharply from a conventional IPO.
Sponsor record
Cantor Fitzgerald has launched 15 vehicles. Of the 9 that have resolved, 7 closed a combination and 2 liquidated, a 77.8% completion rate. A sponsor's record is not a forecast, but it does tell you whether the team has taken a deal across the line before.
Underwriting
Cantor Fitzgerald led the offering. It has been named on 151 SPAC IPOs, book-running 130 of them, and 69.5% of its resolved vehicles closed a deal. The syndicate has no control over whether a sponsor finds a target, but the quality of the book at pricing shapes who ends up holding the units.
From listing to the date Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. must close a deal, extend again, or return the trust. The marker is today.
Filings per month since the first one. A vehicle that has gone quiet with a deadline ahead is a different proposition from one that is still working.

Potential is about execution, not about the target. It says nothing about whether the eventual deal is worth owning, because the target is usually unknown when the score is computed.
These are derived measures, not ratings of investment merit. They carry no view on the target, no price target and no recommendation, and a high score is not a reason to buy anything.

Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc.: questions answered
What is Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. (CEPO)?
Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. is a special purpose acquisition company incorporated in Cayman Islands and registered with the SEC under CIK 0002027708. It completed its initial public offering in Jan 2025, raising $200M in gross proceeds and listing on Nasdaq. Class A shares trade under the ticker CEPO on Nasdaq. The vehicle is sponsored by Cantor Fitzgerald through Cantor EP Holdings I, LLC. The mandate targets technology, financial services, healthcare, real estate. Definitive business-combination agreement signed, closing pending.
How much does Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. hold in trust?
Approximately $211,232,559, or about $10.56 per public share, as at the most recent filing on record. Trust balances move: shareholders redeem at extension votes and at the combination vote, and sponsors pay contributions in to extend. Treat the figure as a point-in-time disclosure, not a running balance.
When must Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. complete a merger?
By Jan 8, 2027. If no combination closes by then the sponsor must seek a further extension or wind the vehicle up and return the trust.
What happens if Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. does not find a target in time?
The charter requires the vehicle to redeem 100% of the public shares and return the trust, pro rata, to public shareholders. That is the mechanism working as designed rather than a default. Founder shares and warrants are worthless in that outcome, which is why the sponsor's incentive is to get a deal done or to buy more time. Across the market, deadline lapsed without a deal; trust returned to public shareholders.
Can I redeem shares in Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc., and at what price?
Public shareholders may elect to redeem in connection with a combination vote and at each extension vote, at the pro-rata trust value on the relevant record date, most recently disclosed at about $10.56 per share. Redemption is a right attached to the public shares only; warrants and rights carry no claim on the trust. The mechanics and the deadline for electing are set out in the proxy statement for the vote in question.
What tickers does Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. trade under?
Class A shares trade as CEPO on Nasdaq. Units trade first and separate into their component securities roughly 52 days after the IPO; only the Class A shares carry the redemption right against the trust.
Is the trust value the same as the share price for Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc.?
No, and the gap between them is the whole trade. Trust per share is a disclosed, contractual figure of $10.56, being what a redeeming holder receives. The market price is whatever the shares change hands at: most recently $10.77, a premium of 1.97% to the redemption value. Quotes on this site are delayed and indicative; confirm on your own venue before trading.
How much dilution do Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc.'s founder shares and warrants create?
The founder block is 20,000,000 shares against 20,000,000 public shares, so roughly 50.0% of the combined count sits with the sponsor at nominal cost. Both are disclosed in the prospectus and both survive into the combined company, which is why a de-SPAC at $10 is not economically the same as an IPO at $10.
Who sponsors Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc., and what is their track record?
Cantor EP Holdings I, LLC is the sponsor entity, part of the Cantor Fitzgerald franchise. That franchise has launched 15 vehicles in total, of which 7 closed a combination and 2 liquidated, a 77.8% completion rate on resolved vehicles. Named principals: Brandon G. Lutnick, Howard W. Lutnick.
Which banks underwrote the Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. IPO?
Cantor Fitzgerald. Cantor Fitzgerald was credited as book-running manager on the cover. Syndicate membership and role are read from the prospectus cover and the underwriting section.
Is Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. tradeable, and where?
Yes. CEPO returned a live quote of $10.77 on Nasdaq. Quotes here are delayed and refreshed on a schedule rather than streamed, so treat the figure as indicative and confirm on your own venue. Units and warrants trade under their own symbols and are quoted separately.
Is Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. a good investment?
That is not a question this site answers. Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. is covered here as reference data: what the company filed, when it filed it, and what the numbers in those filings say. The Edge, FOMO and Potential scores on this page are derived measures with a published formula, not ratings of investment merit: they describe the setup, and every component is shown so you can take them apart. We publish no price targets and no recommendations, and nothing here should be read as advice. The figures are a starting point for your own work, and each one carries the accession number of the filing it came from.
Where does this Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. data come from?
Filings Cantor Equity Partners I, Inc. submitted to the SEC under CIK 0002027708: the registration statement and final prospectus for the structure, quarterly and annual reports for the trust, current reports and proxy statements for deals, votes and extensions. Trust economics are taken from the registrant's own XBRL tags rather than parsed from prose, which is why they are exact. Every filing in the history above is listed with its accession number, which identifies the document uniquely on EDGAR; Pro accounts open it directly from the row.
Compiled by the SPACListing research desk
Last reconciled Oct 20, 2026
Every figure on this page is read from documents the registrants filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, principally the IPO prospectus (Form 424B4), quarterly and annual reports, current reports and proxy statements, the registrant's own XBRL tags for trust economics. 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.
