Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

As previously announced, Jupiter Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) set a redemption date of December 26, 2023 (the “Redemption Date”) to redeem all of the outstanding shares of its Class A common stock issued as part of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “public shares”) because the Company’s board of directors determined that the Company would not be able to consummate an initial business combination within the time period set forth in the Company’s charter.

 

On the Redemption Date, the trust account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) was liquidated and all of the outstanding public shares were redeemed at a per-share redemption price of approximately $10.34 per share. The Company’s initial stockholders waived their redemption rights and any right to receive liquidating distributions with respect to the shares of Class A common stock (i) issued upon conversion of the shares of Class B common stock issued prior to the IPO and (ii) underlying the private placement units issued in connection with the IPO. There are no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which expire worthless.

 

Additionally, on the Redemption Date, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) filed a Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to delist the Company’s units, Class A common stock and warrants, and trading of such securities on Nasdaq was suspended prior to the open of business on December 27, 2023. The Company expects to file a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the registration of its securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and to pursue the winding up and dissolution of the Company. The Company’s securities will not be listed or registered on another national exchange or on a quotation medium.
