By EC Assets · Published · Updated
Irenic Acquisition Corp. has completed its initial public offering on Nasdaq, raising $220 million. The special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) commenced trading on February 24. It offered 22 million units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant grants the holder the right to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The units began trading on Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol "IRENAU". Once the securities comprising the units separate, the Class A ordinary shares and warrants are expected to trade under the symbols "IRNC" and "IRNC WS", respectively. The offering was underwritten by Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. This IPO provides Irenic Acquisition Corp. with capital to pursue its acquisition strategy. SPACs raise funds through an IPO with the intention of acquiring an existing private company, taking it public through the merger. Investors will monitor the company's progress in identifying and ultimately combining with a suitable target. This marks another instance of a SPAC listing on a major U.S. exchange.
