Armada Acquisition Corp. II (NASDAQ: XRPN) details Ripple-linked merger and trust balance
Armada Acquisition Corp. II, a SPAC listed on Nasdaq, filed its quarterly report for the three months ended December 31, 2025. The company holds $236.9 million in its trust account while regular cash was $287,074, leaving a working capital deficit of $3.8 million.
General and administrative costs were $2.9 million, largely offset by $2.3 million of interest income on trust investments, resulting in a net loss of $0.6 million. Shareholders’ deficit was $13.1 million, driven mainly by SPAC structure and accretion of redeemable Class A shares.
On October 19, 2025, Armada signed a Business Combination Agreement with Evernorth Holdings, Pathfinder Digital Assets and Ripple-related entities, under which Evernorth will become the public parent company. Multiple subscription agreements contemplate large PIPE investments funded in cash and XRP tokens. Management discloses substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern if no business combination is completed by November 22, 2026.
Positive
- Signed Business Combination Agreement with Evernorth and Ripple-affiliated entities, positioning the SPAC to merge into a new Pubco structure and transition from a cash shell to an operating digital-asset-focused business, subject to closing conditions and shareholder approvals.
- Large committed PIPE and token-funded subscriptions, including hundreds of millions of dollars in cash and XRP token contributions across advance, delayed, Series C and Ripple Group subscription agreements, providing a substantial potential capital base for the post-combination company if all close as agreed.
Negative
- Going concern warning: management states substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern if it fails to complete a business combination by November 22, 2026, given limited operating cash and a working capital deficit.
- Rising operating costs with limited cash outside the trust, as general and administrative expenses of $2.9 million for the quarter and a $3.8 million working capital deficit increase dependence on sponsor support or new financing before any transaction closes.
Insights
Armada signs a large crypto-focused business combination but still faces going-concern risk.
Armada Acquisition Corp. II has typical SPAC economics:
The
Despite the pending deal and subscription agreements, management cites a going concern issue because the SPAC must close a transaction by

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.
