Insights

LaFayette priced a $100M SPAC IPO; units to trade on Nasdaq beginning Oct. 24, 2025.

The company priced 10,000,000 units at $10.00 each, implying gross proceeds of $100,000,000 before any over‑allotment exercise; units will list on the Global Market of Nasdaq as "LAFAU" with planned separation into LAFA (ordinary shares) and LAFAR (rights) once component securities trade separately. The structure and underwriting terms — a 45‑day over‑allotment option for 1,500,000 units and expected close on Oct. 27, 2025 — follow standard SPAC market practice.

Primary dependencies include timely closing under customary conditions and successful separate listing of the component securities; the sponsor and underwriters determine whether the over‑allotment is exercised. Key risks are standard for blank‑check vehicles: no target company is named and proceeds depend on investor rollover and trust mechanics. Watch the completion of the offering on Oct. 27, 2025, the start of trading on Oct. 24, 2025, and any early announcements naming a target or changes to the over‑allotment decision within the next 45 days.
