Reading the filings
Arithmetic on what JAB Acquisition Corp I 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.
Sponsor record
JAB has launched 2 vehicles, none of which has resolved yet, so there is no completion record to read.
Underwriting
D. Boral Capital led the offering. It has been named on 28 SPAC IPOs, book-running 27 of them. 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.

Attention is not quality. FOMO rises on news volume and on the market paying above trust, both of which have preceded plenty of disappointments.

searching
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.

JAB Acquisition Corp I: questions answered
What is JAB Acquisition Corp I (JAB)?
JAB Acquisition Corp I is a special purpose acquisition company incorporated and registered with the SEC under CIK 0002128739. It completed its initial public offering in Jun 2026 and listing on Nasdaq. Class A shares trade under the ticker JAB on Nasdaq. The vehicle is sponsored by JAB through JAB Acquisition Sponsor I, LLC. The mandate targets technology, financial services, media & entertainment. IPO closed, trust funded, no definitive agreement announced.
How much does JAB Acquisition Corp I hold in trust?
Approximately $172,816,825, 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 JAB Acquisition Corp I complete a merger?
No combination deadline appears in the filings we have indexed. The date is stated in the charter and repeated in each quarterly report; where our parser could not establish it with confidence we leave it blank rather than infer one.
What happens if JAB Acquisition Corp I 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 JAB Acquisition Corp I, 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. 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 JAB Acquisition Corp I trade under?
Class A shares trade as JAB 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 JAB Acquisition Corp I?
No. Trust per share is a disclosed, contractual figure: what a redeeming holder receives. The market price is whatever the shares change hands at, which can sit above the trust when a deal is well received or below it when the market doubts one will close. We do not have a current quote for this vehicle, so no spread is shown.
How much dilution do JAB Acquisition Corp I's founder shares and warrants create?
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 JAB Acquisition Corp I, and what is their track record?
JAB Acquisition Sponsor I, LLC is the sponsor entity, part of the JAB franchise. That franchise has launched 2 vehicles in total, none of which has resolved yet. Named principals: Joshua Jagid.
Which banks underwrote the JAB Acquisition Corp I IPO?
D. Boral Capital. D. Boral Capital was credited as book-running manager on the cover. Syndicate membership and role are read from the prospectus cover and the underwriting section.
Is JAB Acquisition Corp I tradeable, and where?
Yes. JAB returned a live quote of $9.95 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 JAB Acquisition Corp I a good investment?
That is not a question this site answers. JAB Acquisition Corp I 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 JAB Acquisition Corp I data come from?
Filings JAB Acquisition Corp I submitted to the SEC under CIK 0002128739: 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 Sep 4, 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.
