Abstract:
In this article, the authors discuss the challenges faced by ex-SPACs as well as the implications for their future. They explore “end of life” considerations faced by ex-SPACs, including potential delisting from stock exchanges, liquidity constraints, and limited financing options. Next, they provide insights into the growing number of ex-SPACs contemplating going private or seeking bankruptcy protection. They close with reflections on the legal considerations surrounding these choices and the potential surge in distressed M&A activities involving ex-SPACs.Keywords: Starry Group Holdings; Exchange De-Listing; Reverse Stock Splits; Chapter 11 Section 363 Sale
