We intend to seek to acquire one or more businesses with an aggregate enterprise value in excess of $750 million. (Incorporated in the Cayman Islands)
Our target sectors may include but are not limited to: consumer, food and agriculture, e-commerce, Internet and retail, financial services and financial technology; media, entertainment and hospitality, business services, software and SaaS (Software as a Service); telecommunications services and technology, industrial technology and infrastructure and energy transition.
We have been formed as part of a long-term vision to sponsor a series of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”). Members of our management team worked together as executive officers or members of the board of directors of SBXC, Boxwood Merger Corp, which completed its initial business combination with Atlas Technical Consultants, Inc., and SBEA, which completed its initial business combination with Black Rifle Coffee Company (BRCC). Therefore, we represent the fourth SPAC that members of our management team have led. We believe this vision, strategy and experience will serve as a competitive advantage for us.

Mr. Kadenacy has been serving as Chief Financial Officer of BRCC since September 2023 and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SBXC since its initial public offering in February 2023.
