Jack Creek (NASDAQ:JCIC) announced that its shareholders have approved its combination with Bridger Aerospace at a special meeting earlier today.
The parties have not yet released redemption figures, but the six SPACs that have completed deals since December 1 and reported results had an average of about 96.6% of shares redeemed.
