Insights

Capital markets & SPAC structure analyst

DGAC’s SPAC IPO raises $150M and fully funds its trust.

Disciplined Growth Acquisition Corporation completed a standard SPAC IPO, selling 15,000,000 units at $10.00 each and placing $10.05 per unit into a trust. Combined with the private placement, this yields $150,750,000 in cash restricted for a future business combination.

The structure includes 345,000 private placement units and 4,650,000 founder shares that will convert to Class A shares at closing of a deal, plus 675,000 representative shares to the underwriter’s designee. Investor outcomes will depend on the eventual acquisition target the SPAC selects in sectors such as financial technology, aerospace and defense technology, or clean technology.

The 15‑month window to complete a business combination, along with detailed redemption and liquidation terms tied to the trust, frames the risk–reward profile. Subsequent filings describing any proposed business combination will provide the key valuation details.

Key Terms

initial public offering, blank check company, trust account, founder shares, +2 more

6 terms

initial public offering financial

"consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 15,000,000 units"

An initial public offering (IPO) is when a private company first sells its shares to the public and becomes a stock-listed company. It matters because it allows the company to raise money from a wide range of investors, helping it grow, while giving early shareholders a way to sell some of their ownership.

blank check company financial

"Disciplined Growth Acquisition Corporation is a blank check company formed for the purpose"

A blank check company is a publicly listed shell that raises money from investors before naming a specific business to buy or merge with, similar to handing a cashier a signed check and asking them to fill in the payee later. It matters to investors because it offers a faster, often cheaper path for private firms to become public, but carries extra risk since returns depend on the organizers’ ability to find a good deal and on limited information about the future business.

trust account financial

"$10.05 per Unit was deposited into a trust account with Odyssey Transfer and Trust Company"

A trust account is a special bank or brokerage account where assets are held and managed by a designated person or firm (the trustee) for the benefit of another person or group (the beneficiary). It matters to investors because it separates assets from personal or corporate funds, can protect assets, control how and when money is used, and may affect tax or legal rights—think of it as a locked drawer opened only under agreed rules.

founder shares financial

"an aggregate of 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “founder shares”)"

Founder shares are the ownership stakes given to the people who start a company, often with extra voting power or protections compared with ordinary shares. For investors, they matter because founders’ control and incentives influence decisions about strategy, hiring, and whether the company sells or stays independent — like a family that keeps majority voting rights in a household decision. High founder ownership can mean stable leadership but also a risk that outside shareholders have less influence.

over-allotments financial

"45-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,250,000 units to cover over-allotments"

An over-allotment is a temporary extra batch of shares that the underwriters of a stock offering are allowed to sell beyond the original amount, with the right to buy those shares back later. Think of it as spare tickets sold to meet demand and then reclaimed if needed to keep the market orderly; it helps stabilize the stock price after an offering and can affect short-term supply and potential dilution, which matters to investors tracking price and ownership stakes.

Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association regulatory

"filed its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association"

A document that replaces and combines a company’s core governing papers into a single, updated set of rules spelling out the company’s purpose, share structure, voting rights and how decisions are made. Think of it as rewriting and consolidating a household’s rulebook so everyone knows who controls what and how major choices are handled. Investors watch these changes because they can alter ownership rights, governance, dividend policy and takeover protections, affecting value and control.

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-295097) for the IPO, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 16, 2026 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”):

The Company also issued 675,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to the Representative’s designee as part of the underwriting compensation (the “Representative Shares”) on the closing of the IPO. The Representative Shares are identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Units, except that the Representative has agreed not to transfer, assign, sell, pledge, or hypothecate any such Representative Shares, or subject such Representative Shares to hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person until 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales of the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), subject to exceptions pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2). The Representative has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such Representative Shares until the completion of the initial business combination, except as permitted under the Underwriting Agreement. In addition, the Representative has agreed (i) to waive its redemption rights (or right to participate in any tender offer) with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial business combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial business combination within the period as provided in the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Amended Charter”).

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Sponsor Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement and the Underwriters’ Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 345,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor, Maxim and/or its designees and at-risk capital investors at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $3,450,000. Of these Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 175,000 Private Placement Units, Maxim and/or its designees purchased 60,000 Private Placement Units and the at-risk capital investors purchased 110,000 Private Placement Units.

No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Placement Units was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Prior to the IPO, the Sponsor acquired from the Company an aggregate of 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “founder shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share. Simultaneously with the IPO, the Sponsor forfeited 1,100,000 founder shares and the at-risk capital investors purchased 1,100,000 founder shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreements (of which, 150,000 founder shares were purchased by the Maxim individuals and 950,000 founder shares were purchased by the third-party investors) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4,000, or approximately $0.004 per share, which resulted in the Sponsor owning 4,650,000 founder shares. The founder shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary Shares at the time of the Company’s initial business combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended Charter. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the founder shares was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Effective May 27, 2026, in connection with the IPO, John W. Heilshorn, Aaron Spool, Michael Faber, John Ziegelman and Jay Gettenberg (collectively, the “Directors”) were appointed to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”).

Each of Mr. Faber, Mr. Heilshorn and Mr. Gettenberg was appointed to the Board’s Compensation Committee, with Mr. Faber serving as chair of the Compensation Committee.

On May 26, 2026, the Company entered into indemnity agreements with each of the Directors and Executive Officers, which require the Company to indemnify each of them to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. The foregoing summary of the indemnity agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the form of indemnity agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.6 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03. Amendments to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association; Change in Fiscal Year.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

A total of $150,750,000 from the proceeds of the offerings of the Units and the sale of the Private Placement Units (net of transaction expenses and working capital) was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Odyssey Transfer and Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes and up to $100,000 for dissolution expenses, the funds held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if it is unable to complete its initial business combination within 15 months from the closing of the IPO (or by such earlier liquidation date as the Company’s board of directors may approve), subject to applicable law, and (iii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if it has not consummated an initial business combination within 15 months from the closing of the IPO or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity.

FAQ

What did Disciplined Growth Acquisition Corporation (DGAC) raise in its IPO?

Disciplined Growth Acquisition Corporation raised $150,000,000 by selling 15,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit. Each unit includes one Class A ordinary share and one right to receive one-fourth of a Class A share after the company completes a business combination.

How much cash from DGAC’s IPO and private placement is held in the trust account?

DGAC placed $150,750,000 into a U.S.-based trust account. This amount comes from the IPO and 345,000 private placement units, with $10.05 per IPO unit deposited, and generally remains restricted until a business combination, redemption event, or liquidation occurs under specified conditions.

What are DGAC’s founder shares and how will they convert?

DGAC’s sponsor initially bought 5,750,000 Class B founder shares, then forfeited 1,100,000, leaving 4,650,000 founder shares.
