Filing Explained

Existing holders have no completed ownership change or quantifiable dilution from this filing; those mechanics remain unresolved pending later transaction documents.

The filing reports that ChampionsGate has entered into the business combination agreement, but it does not report shareholder approval, an effective registration statement, closing, or a securities sale; the transaction therefore remains proposed rather than completed.

The communication expressly states that it is not an offer to sell securities or a solicitation of an offer, and that no offer will be made before registration or an applicable exemption.

No transaction consideration or dilution terms are stated here, so the economic effect on existing common holders cannot be sized from this filing.

Exhibit 99.1 press release date September 11, 2026 Press release about the transaction furnished as an exhibit
special purpose acquisition company financial
"ChampionsGate Acquisition Corp, a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company"
A special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) is a company formed with the sole purpose of raising money through a public offering to buy or merge with an existing private business. It acts like a vehicle that allows private companies to go public more quickly and with less complexity. For investors, it offers an opportunity to invest early in a potential acquisition, though it also carries risks if the intended deal doesn’t materialize.
Business Combination Agreement financial
"entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Business Combination Agreement"
A business combination agreement is a detailed contract that lays out the terms for two companies to join together—covering price, how ownership will be split, the steps needed to close the deal, and what each side promises to do or avoid before closing. For investors it matters because the agreement determines potential changes in value, control, timing, and risk exposure—think of it like the playbook for a merger that shows who wins, who pays, and what could still derail the plan.
Registration Statement on Form F-4 regulatory
"prepare and file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form F-4"
A registration statement on Form F-4 is a regulatory filing used when a foreign company offers or issues securities in connection with a merger, acquisition, exchange offer or similar transaction that involves U.S. securities law. It gathers the deal terms, financial statements, management background and risk factors into one disclosure package so investors can evaluate the transaction — like an ingredient list and instruction manual investors read before deciding to buy or vote on the new or exchanged shares.
proxy statement/prospectus regulatory
"the definitive Proxy Statement/prospectus and other relevant documents will be mailed"
A proxy statement or prospectus is a document that companies send to shareholders to provide important information about upcoming decisions or investments, such as voting on company issues or offering new shares to the public. It helps investors understand the details and risks involved, enabling them to make informed choices about their ownership or involvement with the company.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This communication contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
