SPAC vocabulary & mechanics
- What is a SPAC?
- A Special Purpose Acquisition Company — a blank-check shell that raises money in an IPO with the intent of using those proceeds to acquire a private operating company within a set deadline (typically 18–24 months). Shareholders can either approve the eventual deal or redeem their shares at the trust value (usually $10/share).
- What is a DeSPAC?
- A SPAC that has completed its business combination — the formerly-blank-check shell now trades as the merged operating company. Roughly 80% of recent DeSPACs trade below the SPAC's $10 trust value within a year, per our distribution chart.
- What is a SPAC redemption?
- Shareholders' right to return their shares to the SPAC trust in exchange for their pro-rata cash share of the trust. They get their money back (typically ~$10 + interest) instead of holding shares in the merged target. Heavy redemptions can leave the sponsor with too little cash to consummate the deal.
- What is an extension vote?
- When a SPAC can't close a deal before its deadline, it asks shareholders to push the deadline out — typically by 3 or 6 months at a time. Each extension is its own vote and gives holders another redemption opportunity.
- How often is this hub updated?
- The IPO tracker, vote calendar, and DeSPAC tracker each refresh on independent cadences (hourly to daily). The headline numbers on this page reflect the freshest data from each. For real-time alerts, custom watchlists, and the full data API, see the Boardroom Alpha platform.
