One Madison Corp. (OMAD)

OMAD recently arranged an additional $20 million PIPE and amended the Sponsor and Anchor Investor earn-out, which you can read about HERE. We’ll update once vote results are released.
Other than those two items, there’s nothing else “scheduled” for next week. However, whenever it’s quiet or you think it’s going to be quiet, that’s usually when we get some surprise SPAC IPO filings.
