New York, NY, Oct. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GSR IV Acquisition Corp. (“GSRF” or the “Company”) announced today that, commencing October 20, 2025, holders of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering of 23,000,000 units, which included 3,000,000 units issued upon the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option (“Units”), may elect to separately trade the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares (“Class A Ordinary Shares”) and Rights (Rights”) included in the Units. Each Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share and one-seventh (1/7th) of one Right, 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. The Class A Ordinary Shares and Rights that are separated will trade on Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “GSRF” and “GSRFR,” respectively. Those units not separated will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “GSRFU.” Holders of units will need to have their brokers contact Odyssey Transfer and Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate the units into Class A Ordinary Shares and Rights.
GSRF is a newly incorporated, blank check company formed in the Cayman Islands for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. While the Company may pursue an initial business combination target in any business or industry, it intends to identify companies with compelling public-market narratives, high visibility of growth prospects, and attractive cash flow dynamics now or in the near future, where a public listing, financing from an initial business combination and access to public capital markets will enable the target to build on its competitive advantages and allow the target company to further accelerate its growth profile.
