Company Description
Gesher Acquisition Corp. II (GSHR) is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), also referred to as a blank check company, in the Financial Services sector under the Shell Companies industry classification. According to its public disclosures, the company was 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 states that it may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any business or industry, while maintaining a stated focus on target businesses located in Israel. This focus provides a defined geographic orientation for its search, while still allowing flexibility across sectors when identifying a potential business combination candidate.
Gesher Acquisition Corp. II completed its initial public offering of units on the Nasdaq Global Market. Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Class A ordinary shares are expected to trade under the ticker symbol GSHR and the redeemable warrants under the ticker symbol GSHRW on Nasdaq. The units themselves trade under the symbol GSHRU. The company’s Class A ordinary shares have a par value of $0.0001 per share, and each whole warrant is exercisable for one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50, subject to certain adjustments, as disclosed in its offering documents and SEC filings.
Gesher Acquisition Corp. II is organized in the Cayman Islands, as indicated in its SEC filings, and its securities are listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. The company has identified itself as an emerging growth company under applicable U.S. securities laws, which can affect the reporting and disclosure framework it uses in its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
As a blank check company, Gesher Acquisition Corp. II does not describe an operating business of its own in its public materials. Instead, its stated objective is to identify and complete an initial business combination within a defined timeframe, subject to shareholder approval and other customary conditions. Until such a transaction is completed, investors and analysts primarily evaluate the company based on its capital structure, governance arrangements, and the experience and focus of its management team and board of directors, as described in its prospectus and subsequent filings.
The company’s SEC filings also describe its listed securities in detail. Its Class A ordinary shares trade under the symbol GSHR, and its redeemable warrants, each whole warrant exercisable for one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50, trade under the symbol GSHRW. These disclosures help investors understand how the units, shares, and warrants relate to one another and how they are expected to trade on Nasdaq once separated.
Because Gesher Acquisition Corp. II is a SPAC, its long-term business profile will depend on the characteristics of any target business or businesses it ultimately combines with. Until then, its public information focuses on its blank check structure, its intention to pursue a business combination, and its emphasis on potential targets located in Israel, rather than on ongoing operations or revenue-generating activities.
