Insights

Galata Acquisition Corp. II raised $172.5M in its IPO as a blank check company targeting energy, fintech, real estate, and technology sectors.

Galata Acquisition Corp. II has successfully completed its IPO, raising $172.5 million by selling 17.25 million units at $10.00 each on Nasdaq under the symbol "LATAU". Each unit combines one Class A ordinary share with one-third of a redeemable warrant (exercise price: $11.50).

This SPAC structure follows the standard blank check company model, with 100% of the IPO proceeds ($172.5 million) placed in trust while management searches for acquisition targets. The company has identified four primary sectors of interest: energy, financial technology, real estate, and technology - a relatively broad mandate compared to more specialized SPACs.

The management team features notable experience: Daniel Freifeld (Chief Investment Officer and Chairman), Craig Perry (CEO), William Weir (President/COO), and Powers Spencer (CFO). BTIG served as the sole book-running manager, and the offering included a full exercise of the underwriters' 15% over-allotment option, indicating strong initial demand.

Investors should note that once the units begin separate trading, the Class A ordinary shares and warrants will list under "LATA" and "LATAW" respectively. Like all SPACs, this represents a pre-combination investment vehicle with the standard $10.00 redemption floor protection until a business combination target is announced and approved.

Nashville, Tennessee, Sept. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Galata Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) announced today the closing of its initial public offering of 17,250,000 units, which includes 2,250,000 units issued pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in full. The offering was priced at $10.00 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds of $172,500,000.

The Company’s units began trading on September 19, 2025, on The Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “LATAU.” Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company and one-third of one redeemable warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share of the Company at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to certain adjustments. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. Once the securities constituting the units begin separate trading, the Class A ordinary shares and warrants are expected to be listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “LATA” and “LATAW,” respectively.

Of the proceeds received from the consummation of the initial public offering (including the exercise of the over-allotment option) and a simultaneous private placement of warrants, $172,500,000 (or $10.00 per unit sold in the offering) was placed in trust.

The Company is a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. The Company may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any business or industry sector or geographical location. The Company currently intends to focus on target businesses in the energy, financial technology (fintech), real estate, and technology sectors.

The Company’s management team is led by Daniel Freifeld, its Chief Investment Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), Craig Perry, its Chief Executive Officer, William Weir, President and Chief Operating Officer, and Powers Spencer, its Chief Financial Officer. The Board also includes Douglas Lute, Agostina Nieves and Andy Abell.

BTIG, LLC acted as sole book-running manager for the offering.
