- Reflects (i) 262,500 private units and (ii) 590,625 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Class A ordinary shares"), owned by Aeon Acquisition Partners I LLC, the issuer's sponsor (the "Sponsor"). Each private unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, one redeemable warrant and one right to receive one-fourth of one Class A ordinary share, with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The 590,625 Class A ordinary shares will be subject to certain restrictions until the consummation of the initial business combination (the "restricted Class A ordinary shares"). The private units and restricted Class A ordinary shares were purchased pursuant to a Private Placement Units and Restricted Share Purchase Agreement, dated June 2, 2026, by and between the Sponsor and the issuer for an aggregate purchase price of $2,625,000. Messrs. Demetrios Mallios, the issuer's Chief Executive Officer, and Alan Lewis, the issuer's Chief Financial Officer, are the managing members of the Sponsor. As such, they may be deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of the securities held directly by the Sponsor. Such persons disclaim any beneficial ownership of the reported shares other than to the extent of any pecuniary interest he may have therein, directly or indirectly. The warrants included in the private units will become exercisable on the later of (i) thirty (30) days after the completion of the issuer's initial business combination, or (ii) June 4, 2027 (12 months after the closing of the offering outlined in the issuer's registration statement), and will expire five years after the completion of the initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Each right converts automatically into one-fourth of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination of the issuer.

"Reflects (i) 262,500 private units and (ii) 590,625 Class A ordinary shares..."
initial business combination financial
"until the consummation of the initial business combination (the "restricted Class A ordinary shares")"
An initial business combination is the deal in which a special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merges with or acquires an operating business to bring that business onto public markets. Think of the SPAC as an empty shell that raises money from investors, then uses that cash to buy a private company—this transaction turns the private company into a public one and often changes its ownership, valuation, and access to capital, so investors should watch for shifts in risk, future growth prospects, and shareholder rights.
beneficial ownership financial
"they may be deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of the securities held directly"
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
registration statement regulatory
"12 months after the closing of the offering outlined in the issuer's registration statement"
A registration statement is a formal document that companies file with a government agency to offer new shares of stock to the public. It provides essential information about the company's finances, operations, and risks, helping investors make informed decisions. Think of it as a detailed product description that ensures transparency and trust before buying into a company.
redeemable warrant financial
"Each private unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, one redeemable warrant and one right..."
A redeemable warrant is a financial tool that gives its holder the right to buy shares of a company at a fixed price within a certain period. If the holder chooses to do so, the company can buy back or cancel the warrant before it expires, often to encourage investment or manage share issuance. For investors, it provides an option to potentially buy shares at a favorable price while offering some flexibility for the issuing company.
