Noble Rock Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:NRAC) and Constellation Acquisition Corp. I (NYSE:CSTA) announced this morning that they have each announced changes to their upcoming extension votes.
Noble Rock is moving its vote from January 25 to 10 am ET January 27. It has also slightly decreased the contribution its sponsor intends to make to the trust in connection with the vote. This contribution was previously set to the lesser of $110,000 and $0.06 per share and will now be a range of the lesser of $100,000 or $0.055 per share.
A $0.055 per share contribution would equate to exactly $100,000 if about 1,818,181 shares were left unredeemed. That would be a 92.5% redemption scenario. Should redemptions be less, the pro rata contribution will be less than $0.55.
Noble Rock also indicated in a previous proxy that some Class B shareholders intended to convert their shares into Class A shares in connection with the vote, but will no longer do so.
Constellation I, for its part, announced in an 8-K that it intends to adjourn its special meeting to give it more time to engage with its investors. They were to consider a proposal to allow the SPAC to extend its January 29 transaction deadline to April 29 and allow for up to nine further in one-month extensions.
The record date for that vote will remain December 27 when the special meeting reopens at its to-be-determined new time.
Both SPACs initially IPO’d in early 2021 without overfunding their trusts and with units containing 1/3 warrants. But, neither has announced a transaction in the roughly two years they have been searching.
At the SPAC of Dawn As a rough week in the market comes to a close, at least one de-SPAC has some cause to show off. Many fashion brands were among the hard hit in recent days and not simply for macro reasons. Luis Vuitton-owner LVMH (PA:MC) dropped this week after an earnings miss led...
Shepherd Ave Capital Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: SPHAU) is the latest SPAC to file to IPO, making 24 new registration statements that have filed since June 1, 2024. So far, only two of those 24 have gone public, but it does indicate an active August. In SPACLand at least, August is never slow. As for Shepherd...
At the SPAC of Dawn SPACs have now priced 20 IPOs seven months into 2024 with an eye on beating 2023’s total of 31 IPOs. With a little more than 5 months left in the year, it’s expected that SPACs should at least match that number by only needing to price roughly two IPOs per...
DT Cloud Star announced the pricing of its $60 million IPO and its units are expected to begin trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “DTSQU”, Thursday, July 25, 2024.

Launch Two (NASDAQ:LPBBU) has filed for a $200 million IPO that shows how the market has shifted for new issuance since its sister SPAC Launch One (NASDAQ:LPAAU) filed just over a month ago. Both SPACs are underwritten by Cantor Fitzgerald and seeking nominally the same raise at IPO, but Launch Two is overfunding its trust...
