New York, NY, Nov. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GSR III Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: GSRT) ("GSRT" or the "Company") announced today the pricing of its initial public offering of 20,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of $200,000,000.
The units will be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market LLC ("Nasdaq") and begin trading today under the ticker symbol "GSRTU." Each unit consists of one of the Company's Class A ordinary shares (the "Class A Ordinary Shares") and one-seventh (1/7th) of one right (the "Rights"), with each whole right entitling the holder thereof to receive one Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. No fractional rights will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole rights will trade. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Class A Ordinary Shares and Rights are expected to be listed on the Nasdaq under the symbols "GSRT" and "GSRTR," respectively. The offering is expected to close tomorrow, November 8, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions. GSRT has granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,000,000 units, at the initial public offering price to cover over-allotments, if any.
SPAC Advisory Partners LLC ("SAP"), a division of Kingswood Capital Partners LLC, is acting as the sole underwriter for the initial public offering. SAP is a financial advisory firm wholly owned and controlled by the management of GSRT. Consequently, B. Riley Securities acted as a Qualified Independent Underwriter on the transaction.
