Company Description
Helix Acquisition Corp. III is a Cayman Islands blank-check company formed to pursue a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. The company is a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, and its Class A ordinary shares trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol HLXC.
The company may pursue an initial business combination in any business or industry, but it has stated an intended focus on opportunities in healthcare or healthcare-related industries. As a SPAC, Helix Acquisition Corp. III does not describe a conventional operating business with product sales, manufacturing operations, or service revenue. Its public-company structure is centered on raising capital, holding IPO proceeds in trust, and seeking a qualifying business combination.
Helix Acquisition Corp. III completed its initial public offering of Class A ordinary shares in January 2026. The company also completed a simultaneous private placement of Class A ordinary shares to Helix Holdings III LLC, its sponsor. Proceeds from the public offering and private placement were placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as trustee. The trust-account structure is a core feature of the SPAC model and supports the company's business-combination and redemption framework.
The company is sponsored by Helix Holdings III LLC, an affiliate of Cormorant Asset Management. Its principal executive offices are in Boston, Massachusetts, and its incorporation jurisdiction is the Cayman Islands. The company's public disclosures primarily concern its SPAC capital structure, trust account, private placement shares, Nasdaq listing, governance, and the blank-check purpose for which it was formed.
